Wallington..1st big meet of the year..pics - Page 2

Not joking either!~

He's just hating because he knows he wants one! HAHA!  I'm ok with all the hating!  If I wanted to see an S, I'd turn my head to the left!

haha, i dont think there really can be any hatin on here, cos we all have jags. Nuff sed lol

 
Hatin Biggie?.......Man you got me wrong!
Just dont love it as much as the X....lol
Keep your panties on

Planetarium (Yes somebody fell asleep and snored throughout the 1/2 hr show in the dark :shock:

Red Kite:-

HAHA, about falling asleep in the planetarium!  Thank for atleast catching an S in the ASS!

Was that red car actually a S-Type?
 
I didn't realize the S type were that old of a model.  Guess I need to put my nose in my jaguar history book a lot more. 

No bud, these are the old school S types!

 
They were the favoured cars of the cops in the late 60's n early seventies as they were pretty much the fastest things around
Only problem was......the robbers used em too.....lol
 
JC

not in the US cops didn't use em.
 
But that car is called an S type, I didn't know that.

Man those are the wheels I'd love to get for my jag!  That is exactly what I want 18" cobra!  Don't like the whole chrome look though on the sides rather have paint and some chrome rims!

Heres a couple more I found:-

Thanks buck always able to count on you for some good pics...loving those rims...don't like not having the leaper on the front of the cars though...first thing my mind notices and I don't even think about it until I don't see them on your guys' cars.

HEY MAN

Not all jags are designed to have leapers on them.

Don't hate.

But I see what your saying, you;d think a car like that all chromed out, they'd want the extra chrome on teh leaper.

Here in the US they are supposed to or usually do in Europe they are illegal to have since they are a "Safety Hazard"  which is dumb to me....you get hit by a car that is generally a pretty big hazard with or without the jag going into your rear end...besides people these days probably like that  a little more  To me a jag isn't a jag without one...sad the new xf won't have one...at least not from the prototypes i've seen...

BTW guys I couldn't find any pictures of the xf...pretty sure I may have some on the camcorder but I've got about 30 of the mini dvds to finalize just to find out which one is it...if I even got footage of the car they had hidden from the public eye....jerks...

I think certain models, yea the leaper looks great.  The S type and the new xjs i like the leaper on.  The x type I'm indifferent too.

Alot of jaguars have never had the leaper, so it;s kinda dumb to say it's not a jag without the leaper.  Like the XK's don't have a leaper, and the E-Type  never had a leaper.

 
I agree, but then I'm not a big fan of the leaper anyways.........old school I think.
Havin said that, it was on a MK11 S type (1959) on a re run of Top Gear tonight and looked the biz.
That car could do 0-60 in 8.5secs and was the favoured car of the cops n the robbers of the day. It showed how they had a small badge on the rear bumper "warning" other drivers that it had disc brakes as the stopping power was immense and so ahead of its time.

Don't talk about topgear on here man, makes me so jealous.

The closest thing I have to top gear in US is horsepower TV.  If anyone knowssomething better please tell me.

SORRY the closest thing we have is watching 5 minute clips of top gear on youtube
