There must be a breaker that specialises in Jag parts, worth a look surely, could save you a fortune.

There are. Just none have any XJ X351 lighting (still after a front, for about the last 2 years, as I point blank refuse to buy a new one, which retails at £1800).

New rear cluster ordered, should arrive later this week. Hopefully. As although the oven has obviously dried it out so that its fully working, its now impossible to get the shut lines even remotely close

Crazy prices , I know parts are expensive  for JLR but that's really taking the P at £1800.

No different to any other premium manufacturer these days, now that apparently we all want super duper matrix laser self levelling light projectors with w@nky daytime running bits round the sides. I say apparently, because I really don't.

As an example, I don't know how much they are new, but current generation audi A8 headlight clusters seem to be going for £1300-1800 used on ebay , or just over £2,000 if you want a matrix led one

And.....if you need one because you damage one, £2000. But, if one has started going due to it's age, then you'd better budget £4000, because the other side is sure to follow.

Any wonder that L320 Range Rovers had a spate of having their rear light clusters stolen a while back , a lot started appearing on eBay from one particular seller but some had a reg number engraved on them , he got nicked in the end.

[TheBoy]

I should be very clear, obviously I did not pay £661 for a new light cluster.  Not even I'm that lazy/desperate.

[Raeturbo]

Some/most of my best cars cost far less than £661 years ago

I have thought long and hard about chopping in my auto derv astra. But why should I when it runs just fine, keeps passing MOT's, returns around 45mpg in town and looks great (I think). Around £2500 is the best I could hope for, what would I get with that?

I like the colour.
