Sorry if this is a repost, saw a silver Jaguar XJ220 parked outside Mercy Nightclub, Prince of Wales Road in Norwich this afternoon. I'm guessing it's the club owners? (Used to have a bentley).

Looked nice anyway, although I still don't like the wheels. Would look better with some 5 or 6 spoke more conventional alloys IMO

Good spot! thumbup

A year ago maybe I spotted a silver XJ220 parked up at the tyre place between Mercy and KFC... wonder if it was the same one.

There was a Blue one at Snetterton on Sunday! Common!

I was told that a guy who owns a club in Norwich has one as well as a bently!

Could well be the one I saw a few years ago behind me on the A12.

Does it have 'Sponsored by Iluvmercs' on the side? silly

That one is owned by a friend of mine who runs a garage near Fakenham. I saw it in the car park and wondered if it was his then bumped into him a bit later.

laugh A Jag driven quickly? Whatever next?! The 3 pointed star will never sponsor a big poofy cat! wink

As for the spot, that is indeed Steve Peri's XJ220. It used to have the number plate "91 P" when I first saw it a couple of years ago. The plate's since been put on his Bentley GT. He used to have a silver Continental T, with the widebody kit on it.

Some say he's a bit of an idiot, yet he let me park on the path outside his club to avoid a parking ticket once, so I can't complain smile

Blimey Daz, you're in with the movers and shakers of the Norwich club scene aren't you!

Well it's the right colour! Didn't take note of the reg I'm afraid.

Seen that in the same place too a year or two back.
