That's pure CLASS!! A non Jag person would think it's a late model car.

Fabulous looking XJS!
Yes, it is a major improvement in feel and performance. JXS with 5 speed feels like muscle car, especially if motor is strong.
There is slight vibration on take off, but I think it has to do now with my bad rear axle mounts.

Perfect! You could not have picked a better color and wheel combination. I love it!

What is that paint code?

Yeah, that colour really suits it, I am toying with the idea of buying an XJS, and most need paint. What colour is it? I am in the UK so may not be available, but it looks fantastic.

Beautiful car! I'm pretty sure I've seen it prowling around the west side of Columbus before?

Superb! Told beforehand I would have expected something garish, but the quality of your work makes it shine. And hats off for daring to go off the trodden path.
