Default Soon to be a new XJR owner

All, I will be picking up my new -to me- 2004 Charcoal grey xjr with 30,000 miles on it Friday! been looking for the right car for over a year, this one still has that new leather smell as you get in!

My wife hates the car, too showy! Oh well, can't please everyone.

Father of 4 under the age of 12. Self-employed landlord in St. Louis.

The car needs new front shocks, I am planning on jumping right in and doing it myself. Otherwise the car is in great shape and looks incredible.

Welcome to the forum.

An XJR too showy, nah, the only thing people see is your rear bumper disappearing into the distance.

Welcome to the forum,

I think dignified is the word, not showy. :-)
