Hi all,

Just bought the wife a 1985 built, 1986 registered here in New Zealand XJS V12-5.3L. 50th birthday present!



We live in the Bay of Plenty, New Zealand having emigrated here from the UK in 2011.

Just removed the IACV for a rebuild as she runs at 1400 when warmed up. She has a couple of small pinholes on the drivers floorpan thanks to a water leak from somewhere in the past, can't find anything obvious, will see what transpires with that one.

So she joins a 1951 Bentley Mark VI and a 1987 Bentley Mulsanne, a 1972 Opel GT, 1939 Studebaker Commander under going restoration and a 1986 Opel Manta coupe rally car and 1985 Opel Manta hatch.

 

Welcome to the forum, nice collection you have going there. I grew up in the Bay of Plenty, nice part of the world.
I will add you to the NZ Roll Call thread.
