Default What XJS Related Photo did you take today
Since there suddenly seems to be a lot of XJS related Photos showing up, it seemed a good idea to Start A Thread.

Where even 'The Good The Bad Or The Ugly' will give you a chance to Show off your Skills or lack of and whichever they are I'm sure we'll find

them very interesting.

The Photos Don't Literally Have To Be Taken Today and they can be anything XJS Related, from Cars to Spare Parts and Engines to Road

Trips and Videos.

Over to you...................

Night Shot of my XJS 'Cherry Blossom'



Night Shot of my XJS 'Cherry Blossom'



After a 16 year layup, She's almost ready to Roar!

That's a lovely Photo Warrjon, in a beautiful setting.

Did you get to choose your own Number Plate?

Yes it is a nice place, it will be a while until our olive grove in the front yard is established.

No I just took whatever number plate was next, all I chose was the slim line plate.

OOOPS, I re-wrote some of it and didn't read it carefully.

No it belongs to a friend. Our place on 2 acres is new and we are still establishing the grounds. Bt everything planted is edible.

That second shot in your garage is lovely, OB. Looks almost like how Top Gear might stage an introduction.

Hi Someday

Cheers!

I thought it sort of looked a bit Atmospheric, I really didn't plan it that way it just happened so I guess I sort of 'fluked it'

But a goal is a goal so they say!

Since videos are okay too, here's a sort of proof of concept video I took (okay, not today, today is rather wet). Using a Gorillapod to hold my video camera to various things out in the countryside, and hand-held out the window in town - only when there are no other cars around, as it's rather embarrassing.

Hi Someday

Cracking Video and Travelogue!

I thought the roads in Japan would be 'choc a block' with Cars but they look deserted.
