  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! (30-07-2014, 08:57 PM)Piggy Wrote: still a ford engine. Still need a pipe and green blazer with suede patches now grant Hahaha yes! That would suit you down to the ground, Grant, don't forget the bad tie!

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...
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.

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!

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