As the title suggests, I own three black XJ-S's; all three are 1980's era V-12 Jags. I am not a mechanic, but I take what I learn from one car and apply it to the others. One XJ-S was headed to the scrap yard in LA, so I had my students paint it TRW style and then spent a great deal of time on it with countless trips to the local junk yard. Eventually ended up blowing the motor at the Sonoma racetrack (GM automatic tranny is not ideal for this application), so I recently completed an engine swap and am now doing lots of long drives up the Northern California coast and into the wine county. I also own a 94' straight 6 XJS that I use as my daily driver and a 2015 F-type R when I need to feel like I am living in this century. Jeffrey Smith
