Hi,
New to the forum. I recently aquired this 1985 V12 Jaguar VDP when my Uncle passed in December.
It has 70,000 KM (43,000 Miles), and other then a few things here and there that need fixing., it is good to go! Only on Sundays though to the occasional car show
I look forward to being part of the Forum!

good luck with your car! take the after market body trim off and try to buy factory trim.nice dash!

 

Great choice in cars :-)

Looking good. I agree about removing the side trim to clean things up.

I'm liking the BBS wheels. Don't think I've seen them on a XJ6/12 before, but they look pretty nice. What size are the rims/tires?

Enjoy!

Eric

 

Thanks for the nice comments!
The tire sizes are 225/50/16. I have never seen them on a Jaguar either, but I like them as well!
What did the original trim look like?? I agree that at the very least, the trim that is sagging has to be taken off

 

I would leave the trim off, it looks cleaner that way..

 

From the factory Ser IIIs had no side trim at all. It was a common add-on, though, using either aftermarket stuff or Jaguar accessory kits.

Beautiful car. I bet it runs well, too!

 

Get some Leatherique on those seats. You will be very happy with the results.

 

Welcome. Beautiful XJ12!
