Saving up for an A3 scanner perhaps?

Some of the Jaguar brochures are getting to be bigger than an XK8 rear seat.

Very Cool! Somewhere I have some old sales brochures for XJ6 and XJS. They would be from around 1978. I wonder if they'd be worth anything? I gotta find those things. If I do, I'll post pics.

If I had that, I'd just scan it with my A4 scanner, then overlay & combine the images afterwards. Though A3 would be much less work of course

When I picked up my '05 from the dealer in September '08 they still had new '08s on the floor of the show room. They also had the sales literature for the '08 model. Needless to say I grabbed one.

Now, whenever I go to an autoshow I always open the brochure up to a suitable glam picture and place it on top of the dash.

Oh, I also have two of these: Jaguar X-Type Diecast Model Silver 1/18 Die Cast Car By Maisto

One boxed and one that I can display with doors and hood open.

That's really neat, never thought about that. I just ordered the 2005 model year booklet.

I really wish it came in Jaguar Racing Green like my car since I think it would be so cool to have an "exact" model of my car.

I suppose I could paint it, but I'm sure that I would just make a mess of it... :-(
