I have pulled the pin and purchased the 2003 V8 4.2 litre with highish kms.
Here she is:

 

Very nice! We don't see many in BRG.

 

I'm wondering if it's perhaps JRG...

 

Looks great, congratulations! I bought very similar a couple of months ago, 4,2 registered 20/12/2002 so presumably a Christmas present for someone, though mine in in the equally gorgeous pearlescent blue. I must confess I have never enjoyed driving a car quite as much and I still can't pass a window without looking out to gaze on its loveliness and to worship a little...

 

Congrats on the new to you acquisition. She's a beaut Clarke.

 

That's the gift that keeps on giving...

 

Thanks everyone- I was very taken with the colour and was the primary reason for purchasing- plus of course the V8.

 

>British racing green

I think you might want to check that, from the looks it seems to be Jaguar Racing Green (or Emerald Fire Pearl code 2074HHP), not BRG. From your picture it looks more emerald and it brighter that BRG which is really rather drab.

================================================
Jaguar - it's not an automobile, it's a Motorcar
2015 JCNA National Slalom Champion Class M
Current: '08 S-Type 4.2 "Satin Edition" (250.06 whp / 259.67 torque)
Past: '05 X-Type 3.0/auto Jaguar Racing Green

 

We don't see many in either colour.

 

>We don't see many in either colour.

And that's too bad because emerald was a very striking colo(u)r

================================================== =
You dreamed of a big star -
He played a mean guitar -
He loved to drive his Jaguar...

So welcome to the machine

 

Damn, I thought I was the only one to do that.

 

How many miles on her?
A fine looking car and hope you get many more out of her!

Hi Clubairth1

She has done 170,009 kms, but appears to be in great nick.

 

That's almost exactly the same as mine (107K miles) Steven, which for a lightly stressed well sorted V8 and knowing the miles others have done, is not a concern, for me anyway.
