    congratulations on an exceptional acquisition. I've admired the XJ220 since day one and haven't wavered, despite the controversies and chequered history.

    I'd wondered about its racing profile and am delighted to read about the Le Mans win. From the photos of your garage, I think the car has found a worthy home. Well done.

    I join others here in looking forward to reading your impressions of the car out on the road.

    Hi,
    I've done a lot of work on this car and know her pretty well, still have the scars ;). If you need any help or any additional information please contact me.

    Thanks!

    Judging by this last post (Hi Andy), and that color...I recall the servicing of this car. I believe I disassembled it before moving on to another shop.

    Really great car, unbelieveable engineering...especially for it's time. An incredible car, not for the timid...behind the wheel or the wrench.

    Congrats on the acquisition, I hope you enjoy the car a great deal.

    Superb.

    This car is way up there in the looks department. IMO one of the best looking of the "supercars".

    Congrats. :)

    Just when I thought you couldn't surprise us anymore, you go and do just that! Congratulations, Jas! She's incredible! Looking forward to hearing your driving impressions.

    I have just one question, I'm wondering how you missed the chance to pick her up the first time around?
