Strong price, but if the paintwork is original it may be worth a look. Personally I think the ubiquity of them and the mileage of this particular example make it overpriced, but nevertheless I see the attraction.
A fair point, but I've not seen any this tidy - with tatty examples anywhere between £500-1500 depending on just how much needs doing, it doesn't seem like a lot more money for one that will require minimal expenditure to enjoy it from day 1. If anything it's too good an example as I'd want to take it on track days.

This or something like it.

But I would have to get rid of the Chim, and that just ain't gonna happen.

Sigh...wish I could win the lottery...

Lovely XJS. I also have a soft spot for the TWR versions. One used to live 3 houses along from me when I was at an impressionable age.

Remember that beastie? I do. The tunnel scene in BTTF2 was my first proper introduction to proper engine noise, and since then I adore this car.


Sorry, couldn't find a better pic but this one made me chuckle hehe

True that. I might have been a little bit pissed when I hobbled online last night..! drunk

In my defence it'd spent the night looking at the Boxster variant Bob Forstner have in at the moment, the Caymans just the same internals with a proper roof!

Not as 'special' as some other cars in here but it's an itch I feel the need to scratch. Perhaps end of next year. That or an NSX.
