Is that what ours has got is it? Just the XJR wheels I can see between ours and other Sovereigns I've seen?

Yours is a standard Sovereign with XJR wheels. The facelift X358 all have the same front end and vents which were different on earlier cars where the Sport Premium was made to look like an XJR externally and those two variants (XJR and SP) had mesh grilles etc

Yes, as I thought, 20" Calisto wheels

My early S2 4.2 manual at a local jolly boys outing recently, freshly MOT'd and allowed out in broad daylight for good behaviour.... the short chap with the beard standing behind it is a neighbour of mine who always reminds me of E-type owner extraordinaire Dennis 'Jenks' Jenkinson of 'Motorsport' fame...



This was the first proper drive after having the fuel system flushed when the MOT was done, somehow the contents of both tanks had become contaminated with water! The only advisory was 'suggest brimming both tanks'...

Very much so. I had an identical XJ40 Sovereign - bought it at 33,000 miles when it was 11 years old. One owner from new etc. Immaculate - like yours looks to be.

Also had an X308 XJR in BRG - can't tell what colour yours is in the pic.

Great taste!

I have had 8 or 9 jags over the years the bloody things get under your skin. I have been threatening to sell my XKR for over 12 months but then everytime I go out in it I change my mind or rather it changes it for me.
had to bump this as I cant post photos at present. . Although I have now advertised the Car having spent an hour in it yesterday and despite having done only 400 miles last year I don't really want to sell it.

Currently down in Marino, we had survived France without a fly strike due to using the Autotrain. We made it through Briancon, down to Pisa and then on to Rome. Until about 30 minutes from our destination the car had remarkably not a single fly on the windscreen or the outside. Then we hit the run down in to Rome and bham, the entire car looks like a fly graveyard now.

Great stuff.

Am flying out to Italy myself in a couple of days time for a family holiday with two young sons (and the accompanying ton of luggage). Renting a Berlingo van, my autostrada experience won't be quite the same paperbag

If only I was in a position to buy it. I hope that life sorts itself out for you soon, it's never good to hear that circumstances have overtaken someone.
