Not quite it's Catalonia near Barcelona.

Vinaros is in Catalonia (well, just across the border into Valencia). Were you roughly 2 hours south of Barcelona, not far from crossing the River Ebre? If it's where I think it is then it's the castle at Santa Maria, next to Ulldecona.

1991 XJS V12, just bought it last week. Going to use it as my new daily.
Bravo Sir!

I wouldn't like your fuel bill though!

I know exactly what you mean

Spotters Tips:

From the side - XF has a sixth light, whereas XE does not.

From the rear - XF has four dips in the tail lamps, XE has two.

From the front - no sodding idea!

If you think Jaguar are bad for this try Astons from 2001 onwards.

Just realised - that's the first time I have seen an XJS on wires.

I think the problem is that Callum designs them all. Well, he designs one, then zooms in and out for the rest. Or not even that if it's an Aston, copy/paste and send in the bill.

I thunk Callum has done well to date, but I feel it's time for a change imho.

Latest acquisition. Utterly in love with it!
After a 4.2 NA centre pipe (less resonators than my xkr) if anyone knows of one for sale/spare?

Very nice, well done smile

I'd say just get an aftermarket rear silencer if you want more noise. I did the Spires stage 1 center section (no silencers at all) on my own 4.2 XKR and got used to the relatively small increase in volume pretty quickly. I got the Elite RR back box later which was much more cost effective. The XK center section still has a single silencer so won't make a great deal of difference I wouldn't think.

I guess you've ditched fuse 19 already?

Cheers for that buddy!
Elite RR? Not heard of that one- how much we talking? smile was it not too Lairy with an aftermarket back box?

Yep ditched fuse 19 and the sound is glorious but really want it to scream!
