Anyone have any experience of these People ? Its a long time since I saw a Series 2 XJ12 in such an attractive colour , bidding standing at £3000 I wonder where it will end at .

lovely motor, enjoy

It is a beautiful thing and I felt sure you would soon be along saying so . I was talking to an Owner of a Series 2 Double Six Vanden Plas last week about some of the differences between the Series 1 and 2 and indeed between the XJ12 and the Double Six Vanden Plas . Imagine these Vanden Plas Models being constructed as little more than rolling chassis and then shuttled round to Kingsbury to be finished alongside the DS Limousines , incredible to think of such a practise taking place today .

I struggle to remember the division between lwb and swb when it comes to the Series 1 and Series 2 XJ , I imagine lwb must have been more common especially as the years progressed ?

Unsold.........like we have said before on here , it can be a struggle to sell at big money .
