Its not though. Could balance a penny on that thing! Its shocking just how a refined engine it is. Then again, I have spent most my life driving vans and 306's

It is but a heavily modified version which you can really tell the difference. Like Grant says, you could balance a penny on that thing even at 14 years old!

[Piggy]

still a ford engine. Still need a pipe and green blazer with suede patches now grant

[Poodle]

Tbf these are very nice to be in, don't seem to wear as badly as most Jags. They just bore me slightly lol, very stolid to drive and you can really feel the weight. That's amazing economy from something like this though, fair play!

Hahaha yes! That would suit you down to the ground, Grant, don't forget the bad tie!

[Curt]

Looks nice, must be comfy and refined. Bit of a change though!

I do like stuff like this... I just get bored too easily. I only had my 330d until the logbook arrived for that reason...

DOES IT HAVE A TAPE DECK? I LOVE TAPE DECK!

[Grant]

Don't worry guys, I already have the following on order;

-a tweed jacket with leather elbow patches
-a pipe
-a monocle
-a tartan rug for the rear shelf
-a pet owl
-a set of tapes for the tape deck, for Liam.


As said, it differs heavily from the ford engines. We use a lot of fords at work. In fairness not any v6 petrols. But the fords we use generally suck arse. The jag uses the base of the duratc 30, but that's about it. After that's it's a completely different game. Or so I am told anyway.

What about the really classy hookers that we discussed? Do not take away my hookers Grant.

[Niall]

Haha funnily enough, we were under the back seat yesterday sorting the fuel pumps and i found a golf tee under the seats.
Stereotype much!
That said, its a fooking nice car. Stupidly comfy, incredibly refined and spec'd and sounds great on full grunt!

[THE_Liam]

Can I have a go Grant? Just noticed they are considerably cheaper and better on juice than XJs...

[Grant]

Course you can mate.

I did look at xj's but discovered the same as you, and hence how I ended up with an s-type

---

Hookers may take some working on unfortunately though

[Piggy]

You need a nice hat for the rear shelf too. And some golf clubs in the boot.

And dont forget some lovely leather driving gloves!!!

[THE_Liam]

Course you can mate.

Cheers pal. Really feeling the need for a Jaaaaaag

[Grant]

Ah the driving gloves! Major oversight on that list.


Also one of those fold out monopole seat things haha

[THE_Liam]

You need a trilby. And a butler called Hetherington...

"Hetherington, warm up the Jaaaaag, there's a good fellow!"

[WiNgNuTz]

Nice mate, when you gonna strip it and track it then?

Needs a box of tissues with a decorative cover on the rear shelf too.

[Grant]

Lol liam. I see you've put some serious thought into this.


Steve, I'm going g to end up spending more on 'accessories' for this car than I have on the actual car

[Pebbles167]

You just wait until it starts doing this Grant!

Inexplicable crankshaft damage.

[Grant]

Haha, yeah don't fancy that!

Thankfully, its a different engine. And round the wrong way :p

[THE_Liam]

Grown your moustache yet mate?
