New XJS V12 Owner
New XJS V12 Owner
Hello all, I am an oldtimer lover and actually an oldtimer myself.
After my beautiful 2000 Vandenplas was rare-ended by an ugly old Ford truck, I got some insurance money and found a 39000 mile XJS V12 year 1988 in what looked like a splended condition as an abandondoned car in a storage for $3000.
Unfortunately, $9000 further, the XJS V12 still is not running and I cant find a garage nearby where I live in the WV panhandle to work on this car with knowledge.
The XJS V12 looks beautiful and in the end I hope to get it going. Any suggestions as to where I can have it serviced?

I didn't realise I was so dangerously close to becoming an old timer! (seven months younger than you)

And we are not getting any younger, are we?
