I am at the point I'm debating one, where do they suffer? I presume your XJR handle means you have or have had one!

Failed on sills , floor , front and rear subframes.seat belt anchorage points.
There was more. I would still have another.

Thanks Jas, I may contact you down the line for advice!

A bit rich for me and its only done a few hundred miles in the last few miles so might need a bit of recommissioning before you started to use it.

Espace Quadra is proper weird. Superb purchase. Get a RR thread up ASAP!

Already done. Although it is very much lacking in photos for the moment.

You will probably get that question answered on the barge 1-5 thread.
A lot of knowledge to be found there.

But in short, the answer is fking brilliant.

This has the better engine

Not the same but similar... just 5 weeks in to ownership and wondering why I never bought one of these years ago, absolutely love it....

I'm feeling quite pleased with myself for thinking it was a 4wd Espace from the alloy wheel design.

RWD, de Dion rear axle. And just spotted that accessory grille with added lights.

Black vinyl roof ? Surely not original ?

[Usget]

Now this is a bit of alright. (Note - I know nothing about these and await flaming for posting a festering turd, but to me it looks like an honest and rare car)

Nope not original... and not vinyl either It's some kind of textured paint, no idea why, maybe original roof paint was damaged and this was a cheap fix, or maybe a previous owner just thought a black roof would look good... either way, it looks Ok... from 10ft away

I like them (and own one) I think of them as a Japanese XJS

That one is massively overpriced though - the seller is well known for being optimistic.

A few years ago £1k bought a nice one - these days £2500 will.

Looks good on those SC430 rims.

ES, buy that and your cock may as well fall off, as you'll never again get laid driving that

Marriage precipitated that situation some decades ago.

Don't get the hate for that volvo, it's got as much retro appeal as anything else in this thread

Needs to lose that tow bar mind

The looks, lack of charm / pace / fun... what is it's appeal ?

My brother had one as his first car - hideous thing
