I promise to downsize, one Jag at a time.
Looks like a simple case of NAJS (Need Another Jaguar Syndrome)...

Now that I've 'come out', do you know of any treatment?

Boy, you have got it bad. johnxjsc1985 said:
Nice Mark.
The only thing I am not over keen on is the headlights and i keep on toying with the twin headlight conversion but is it worth £400.00p
Really late reply John but it's the car I always wanted as a kid and I wouldn't change much. I don't like the look of the twin headlights but each to their own. I'm wondering about dropping £270 on a wooden steering wheel and reckon if you can afford the £400 and want twin headlights then go for it. You can always keep the originals in case you change your mind ....The only thing I am not over keen on is the headlights and i keep on toying with the twin headlight conversion but is it worth £400.00p

My new purchase, bought it on Friday. Stunning engine (4.2 XK).
That really does look very nice and original. What's the mileage if it's not a rude question?It's good to see a Series 1 that's not looking tired. I just love the original dashboard with the central row of clocks and rocker switches (to hell with ergonomics!). But I was never a fan of the waffle-iron grilles. I've got a very solid '69 Series 1 4.2 manual/overdrive awaiting restoration (if I ever get round to it - too many dreams and it will probably end up on ebay soon!) plus a lovely grille to go with it from a S1 XJ V12 which I always thought looked more like a proper Jaguar.
