Be an inflation adjustment. Best smoker barges under 10.

When you can t even get a plethora of medium quality XJR in thread, you know you ve got a problem.
I've wanted one ever since that Top Gear piece where they raced the Royal Mail in one.

I think their only criticism was around the looks, something I could easily live with.

10 is too high, one loses the option of scrappage when the extremely rare catastrophic bork finally occurs.
My added bold, because borkage is very rare on thread fodder cars wink

Soapy goodness. 157k on it but 2004 so cheap tax to offset, any pending doom!

Was very tempted by this yesterday, always thought the original version of this generation of XK was a great looking car. Checking the MOT history this morning was a bit sobering however, shame really.

Not good luck, wishing you GREAT LUCK and watching with interest thumbup

I quite like them and did consider it an option but prior to the inevitable budget creep and the W212 they weren’t financially there.

Great purchase 0a. I've also never liked the looks but that colour combo is very flattering.

Like a good spring roll, crispy on the outside, soft in the middle. Late Friday gift.

Thanks. It drives like a car with 50k on it. Quite remarkable really.

I’ve been taking the pee a bit, but when the 4wd digs in it’s fast enough. Good steering as well. I am surprised how well it drives.

I’d assumed it would be VW slop.

That Panamera has held up very well for the miles. Looks a lovely place to be.

A nice colour combo, looks modern but not too modern.

Noice.

I went scuttling off to the classifieds and can see a few slightly leggy V8's, any reason you went for that one in particular?
