That is a cool one but Jaguars in general are weird, while at a dealer a few years ago I sat in an XKR and it was so cramped I had to lay back to keep my head from touching the liner.  I was joking with the sales guy about the small seat that only a 5 year old kid could maybe sit in and it was actually made for a dog not a person.  Good thing  Ford got out of them, my wife drives an older S-type which I call her Ford as in "Fix Or Repair Daily"

The new ones are on a different level I heard and ridiculously priced.  How much does that one list for?

With a bit of shopping around, it seems you can get a really nice E-type for that briefcase-full of cash.

Not the same car, of course.

I had the shock of my life last Tuesday evening as when I opened the front door there was one of my really old friends stud next to his brand new red soft top F-type, to say its a stunning looking car is an under statement I was just blown away by its beautiful lines... [bow_down]

Over here in the UK theres an advert on TV for the car in which theres a long queue of people awaiting a drive of it with the punch line "my turn next" well I've had my turn and the only down side is that its to dam expensive for this olde fart... :'(

Thanks kop for posting... [thumbsup]
