He sold his precious Jaguar XF 3-litre twin-turbo S to his friend, a mechanic, in the hopes the car would get a better fate than rotting away in his yard.

"The minute the car left the yard I knew I should not have sold it," he said.

"Even broken, instant regret. I love the look, the sound and the drive of it. Everything."

James went on to reveal he lost a whopping £2,368 by selling it broken.

But he admitted that in the end it could've been a lot worse, as the costs to repair the Jaguar would've been almost its value.

James advised anyone looking to get an used Jaguar to make sure it already comes with all the repairs made, otherwise you might be forking out thousands of pounds.

James' subscribers were also sad to see the car go, with one of them writing: "Sad to see your Black XF go, James. This one's a keeper!"

Another added: "Jags are so underrated. Everyone goes for BMW but the Jag is an excellent car. I loved mine."
