Blindside,
Looks great.
You have similar taste to mine. My wife has a '07 Cadillac STS (silver with grey) and I have a '99 XK8 coupe, (red with cashmere), but I sold my BMW R75/5 two years ago!

Thanks! The wheels are Avant Garde M310's... originally for a BMW 5-series. The 5x120 lug pattern fit but I had to have the center bore opened up by about 2mm so they would fit over the hub (the manufacturer can do it, but I had a local shop do it for me). They are 20's and I like the look and the ride better than the impellers I had.

Default Wilton Wake Up
Photo taken this morning at the 'Wilton Wake Up' at Wilton House near Salisbury, UK. Lots of nice cars there this morning, but I would still choose to take this one home

Default New Owner :)
After a month of owing my 1st Jaguar, and finding my way around the forum, the suggestion that I should post a photo of my new acquisition, well proud of her I am, although I do have a planned complete re-spray for her.


I think she looks great in Phoenix Red, and so look forward to seeing her when finished.

£270 which isn't too bad, they removed the back boxes for straight pipe as well so a bit more noise now. Colour is black metallic paint code PED.

Did they have to cut into the rear at all to make them fit? Or are do they just hang below?
