Ew, is that really necessary?! Also it's a bit unfair to compare Major with Blair and Thatcher. This is the man who gave us the National Lottery, Black Wednesday and the privatisation of the railways...
Obviously you wouldn't, but picking up a car that was fit for Prime Minister's and the Queen* not long ago for a bag of sand is cracking value for money. Especially when it's perfect for motorway wafting.
*Actually she had a Daimler branded version but that's probably splitting hairs.

XJ prices are insanely low for what you get, so if you're going to spend £1k on a car for motorways you might as well sit in a nice, quiet, comfortable, fully-equipped place while pretending you're a '90s Prime Minister ;)
