The closest thing I've seen that could be seen as a racist comment is possibly JRG
In what way is JRG racist?Now "BRG" - that's got to be OK as it covers England, Wales, Scotland and A few other bits - if it was ERG (English Racing Green) I think you could say it was racist
Happy to be corrected and remove "JRG" from my car dictionary
It isn't a joke, or funny, or clever, it's something that in many a workplace would earn you a meeting with HR and possibly severe sanctions, and in an open public place could result in a claim being made against you personally.
This has been law for 11 years. ELEVEN f
kING YEARS. You can dismiss this as wokery all you like. It's the law, and some of you are in dire need of a training update if you haven't got it after this long.https://www.equalityhumanrights.com/en/advice-and-...
Now stop discriminating against anything other than diesels, which are not protected by law.

I really like the XK8, but what's the chance of finding a decent one within thread budget?
It's possible but you might have to go and look at a lot of cars. First place I would look is the JEC classifieds. My experience is that enthusiast owned cars tend to be better looked after. tobinen said:
I regularly check XK X150 prices but they seem, to me, to sit stubbornly high. Good if you're an owner.
It does look like they're going to bottom-out at a distinctly higher price than both XJS and X100. I don't know if that's more a function of them being a more successful/attractive design, or because fewer were sold new?Either way, until they're not welcome in lots of places where people want to drive them, it looks like they'll remain a safe place for your money for the time-being.
As XJS continue to die in large numbers, the values of the survivors are looking promising, and the same to a lesser degree for the X100. And whereas XJS was sold for 21 years, X100 only had about 10, and X150 had about 10 as well?

JRG is a discriminatory term, discriminating by perception, implying that there is some link between a physical metal of value and a religion. Why would you do that? Why is it necessary? Would you make that statement to a person sitting across the table from you who told you they were Jewish?

I agree. Especially about diesels. It isn't a joke, or funny, or clever, it's something that in many a workplace would earn you a meeting with HR and possibly severe sanctions, and in an open public place could result in a claim being made against you personally.

Many of the old mills round West Yorkshire have been redeveloped. (Or set on fire).
Magnificent old buildings. They really didn't mess about when they built them.
Certainly the case around here (Holmfirth), lots of nice old mill buildings converted to houses. Also the textile industry is not totally gone either; I live a short walk from the Bower and Roebuck HQ in New Mill, although sadly the buildings there are modern ugly things (70s build maybe).Magnificent old buildings. They really didn't mess about when they built them.
Also, reservoirs. Lots of reservoirs around here which are very impressive, solid looking victorian things.
Sadly, relatively few barges though, aside from a slightly ropey looking CLS and W211 just around the corner from me.
But speaking of slightly ropey looking; mid-thread X308 XJR:

I'm fairly sure that's been up before, marked as sold and now relisted.https://www.pistonheads.com/buy/listing/11647956
If anyone wants a look over it, I'm an easy 20 mins away. I'm actually half-tempted to go have a look at it anyway.

Nice xjr and lots of the roads and scenery round Holmfirth is fantastic, We should arrange a barge meet around the area at some point Also, reservoirs. Lots of reservoirs around here which are very impressive, solid looking victorian things.

I bought a chain of estate agencies out of receivership because it was unable to pay the fine and associated legal bills when they were ordered to pay the claimant's costs for staff making what they thought were jokes discriminating against an employee's religion.Said employee now owns 40% of the remaining group, I have no idea what the perps are now doing.
And I never joke about diesel.

I am not one of those blessed few who can currently afford so majestic a vehicle as a barge, and my current means of conveyance is, to put it generously, humble. Are non-barges allowed at loser conferences?Macron said:

Well that just says it all about the U.K. Said employee now owns 40% of the remaining group, I have no idea what the perps are now doing.
Peak clown world.

It’s not what you drive, it’s about the love of automotive stuff in general.
