Hi Guys,

Here's mine following the number plate being repositioned, n400 sills being added and wheels painted anthracite.

Cheers, Richard

Current car ... (before removing the hideous front plate carrier!) ... photos don't really do the colour justice!

Looks so good in that colour

It's not impossible that I've already posted a pic but here's one a local professional, Craig Garside, did for me recently.



We're still discussing the sky colour...

Lovely motor, but the sky is too much - it detracts from the car itself.

Best Regards.

Yes, it picks out the blue on the registration plate but that's about all. I think we'll settle on a completely monochrome finish in the end.

I've got some rig shots on the way so I'll see how they look - probably no sky at all in those.

IMO, if you could get some of that blue in the sky's reflection on the car you'd have the perfect shot.

VS, is that a DB4GT? Absolutely spectacular!

BTW, I have been thinking about looking for a Series 1 XJ12 -- always liked them. Yours sounds like a fantastic example, but it's so hard to find a good one.

Highly commended but not the winner I see James wink

Guess you saw my effort to add a classic element to this thread on the previous page? Rich...
