1. get plane ticket to wherever this poor car is
2. pack luggage (asteroid alloys)
3. buy this XJR, fit asteroids in the parking lot
4. pile up the 22" or whatever they are wheels and burn them on the spot

No ... sell them on ebay at a premium price to some fool who loves those wheels and apply proceeds to lower cost of Jaguar.

I would request they replace those abomination of wheels with stock before considering purchasing it or tell them they drastically depreciate the car. Hideous.

Prospective car buyers should be happy the seller has left those wheels on the car. Seeing those tells you everything you need to know about the previous owner, and from there you can make some reasonable assumptions about the care the car received.

O.K. some one tell me this is a "Paintshop" Make-over, no-one could be STUPID enough to do that to a Classy Jaguar. Although I believe everyone to his own taste, BUT who the hell could be so distasteful. ???
