That other thread was mine; I've been seeing that same car for sale for ages. Someone put up a "formula" in my thread about what Mondials cost...
Crazy build numbers, I had no idea QV coupes were so rare. I had already decided on a QV or 3.2 coupe, if I can find one. I also am just fine...
Sid, Thanks for taking the time to share your story. Your car came out beautifully. I won't have the kind of help you had, but I do have a friend...
I've owned two XJS V12s and one XJ12L. The XJ12L was a problem child from the beginning; it did not run when we purchased it. Pro tip: If you...
When I do eventually buy one -- I will probably pass up on this one assuming it remains priced as it currently is -- I will only be looking for a...
Thanks to all for the helpful responses and the explanation of Gateway. After making this post last night, I just happened to be on eBay later...
Hence my running it by the group to see if there was anyone with direct feedback. We all have to be wary of the phenomenon of "negative reviews...

As I continue to try to figure out when/if to buy one of these cars, I have been trying to prepare myself a bit for what to expect in regards to...
I feel like I'm reading a lot about myself in this post. I can wrench a few things, but I am much better off letting another do it. I tend to let...
Drewbdo, Thanks for the compliment. It's crazy how cheap a V12 Jaguar can be found for. I hate seeing the Chevy V8 conversions, but I understand...
I would actually like to take you up on that offer at some point, not even to drive it so much as to just sit in it and get my bearings. I'm just...
davem, Love the car in black. I'll always have a soft spot for black sports cars given the first car as a kid that I ever fell in love with was a...
Nuno, Thanks again for the information, and for the compliments. I wouldn't say it's always idyllic here but it is a pace of life that I enjoy....
I'm going to see if I can get some pics up here of what's in the toybox currently... Also, the garage under construction in the pictures of my...
