After a few years away from the Jag fold I've weakened and bought myself an XKR convertible to play with.
I have a real hankering for a black Jag I had a XJS cabbie in Black it looked gorgeous.That looks great.
Now with added shinyness.

I've just recently bought this 1996 XJ Executive. My Grandad bought it new in 1996 and traded it in for his current XF in 2012 and I've been looking for it ever since - sadly I couldn't afford it at the time he sold it due to an expensive break up.
I have a few things I want to do to it, first and foremost I will be getting rid of the horrible stainless steel door mirror covers. Beyond that, and once I've eased into the fact that it's mine and not my Grandad's, I'd like to make some minor improvements to the handling as I'm finding the basic, softer set up of the Executive to be a tad wallowy compared to my old XJ40 Sovereign.

Restored an original blue 02 XKR now in Giallo Fly Yellow, I went a bit mad with the carbon dipping. Had the wheels, dash, steering wheel, window trims, exhaust tips, interior door handles, door mirrors etc all dipped, it actually looks great in the flesh! I also had a bigger lower pulley fitted that has def made a difference in mid range power.
