Zircon Blue, same colour as mine. It's nice to see the colour on a clean and cared for car. My car needs a full cut, buff and polish to bring out the paint, as well as needing the front and rear bumpers repainted. Mine also has a lot less chrome than this car. Thanks for posting.

Normally not a big fan of white walled tires, but I think they look great on your white car, and give an extra dimension to your wheels.Originally Posted by rsgensburg

Thought about the whitewall tires for quite a while as I did not want to jazz up the car. Went to a car show and saw a bunch of older sedans with whitewalls and took the chance and was happy with the result. They are Vogue Wide Track tires. Thanks for your comment.

Have you thought about the idea of having the car wrapped instead of painting? A guy in work used to have a really bad paint job on his BMW, the other day he turned up with it wrapped in a fresh colour and it looked amazing. Just a thought.
My own XJ is having all it's paint and body work done in October.

Chances are that I'll just cut and polish the paint. She'll need a respray eventually. Wrapping her in a serious British Racing Green hue may not be a bad idea...thanks for the suggestion 😁

Not to be picky, or maybe I'm not seeing it, but aren't you riding a bit low in the rear 4litre? That looks about 3/4"+ low....

I love a dark paint job, blacks, blues, burgundy types. They look deeply wet when polished and waxed, images seem to just melt into them.
