My new one. 6.0 XJR-S engine in it with lots of modifications and a sports suspension and handling pack fitted too. The wheels have got to go.....

Christ, amazing. Bet it goes down the road at a fair old pace

Sure does and it sounds great too with a straight through stainless steel AJ6 exhaust on it letting out the sound of this.....

Very, very nice. I've driven a 6.0L XJRS and owned a late 6.0L XJS. Like being attached to the horizon on a massive bungee. Surreal.

Yeah i think the XJC is lighter than an XJC too although i may be wrong!

Might get a 4 speed box on it at some point thats the big bonus the later 6.0 over the XJRS engine although the later 6.0 was lower powered

Yes, I think the Jagsport (Tom Walkinshaw) engine has an extra 20hp over the jag 6 litre. Would be awesome/monstrous if you could get it 4/5 speed manual. Are you running with the Zytek(sp) engine management?

Apparently the TWR engine is 380bhp. I dont want to put a manual in because i am an old fogey when it comes to changing gear The engine management is an upgraded ECU from AJ6 engineering and the exhaust is theirs too. I have emailed them to ask what else they fitted because apparently if you fit everything from them then you can get 450bhp!

I need to dyno it really

I really miss those first few seconds of a V12 turning over and then bursting into life.

Its even better when its attached to a stainless exhaust

No way! She knows too many interesting east European, er..... entrepreneurs for me to risk putting photos of her up on some dodgy car forum. Think of January Jones playing Emma Frost in X Men and you will be on the right lines (except that my friend is even hotter).

Ms Jones:-

LOL! Suh-weet!

Evening folks,

Mind if I tag along?

I know that 'rat look' E Types are the in look, but if you'll forgive a shiny one:



Just out of a sympathetic restoration, it should keep this old girl company, when she's not gazing out to sea:



By the way, the plane's not mine. Some nice bloke let us park in front of it...

[brenflys777]

Finally finished the tidying up jobs, a wing repair and servicing. S-type 3.0SE, 1 owner, 37,000 miles now and happily wafting around Shropshire. The car only cost £1250 but I've spent £800 more on it... not bangernomics but it's a lovely old girl!

My first Jag.

Lovely. My last Jag was an XF-S - my latest impulse buy S-type is much more fun

Here's mine, sadly about to go to its new owner

2007 XK. Had it for 30 months now and still enjoy it as much as the day I bought it.

That's lovely, beautiful colour too. I wanted an XKR in that colour but the body-color foglight grilles on the XKR didn't look right in the red so I settled for a black one. Looks so nice on the XK though.

My series 3 XJ12







It was re-sprayed by the previous owner so the badges were taken off. I've cleaned them up so I can put them back on but now I'm not sure because I quite like the clean look of the rear but I also want to show off the fact that it is a 5.3 V12

[craigjm]

It's a shame the v12 front grille badge from the series 2 doesn't fit directly onto the series 3 grille but with a bit of bodging it can be done.
