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...................

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

Did you get to choose your own Number Plate?

warrjon 04-16-2017 12:01 AM

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.

She looks absolutely Gorgeous!

If you were filling up with Gas, then no doubt you were there for a while! (Lol)

orangeblossom 04-16-2017 03:13 AM

Hi Warrjon

Wow is that your Garden.

Lucky You!

warrjon 04-16-2017 03:45 AM

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.

Some Day, Some Day 04-16-2017 06:00 PM

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

orangeblossom 04-16-2017 07:13 PM

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!

Some Day, Some Day 04-16-2017 07:18 PM

That's how some of the best photos are taken....

Some Day, Some Day 04-17-2017 04:07 AM

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.

Here is one happy XJS owner...guess who?

He does, doesn't he? Hoovie should buy an XJS next.

Oh yeah... As he likes to suffer, he should...

NSX, 996, W123d, W221 V12, Continental etc. :D

orangeblossom 04-17-2017 07:44 AM

Wowser!

XJSV12 That's what I call a great Colour!

orangeblossom 04-17-2017 07:48 AM

Hi Someday

Cracking Video and Travelogue!

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

orangeblossom 04-17-2017 07:49 AM

Hi Daim

Who is Hoovie?

Never heard of him, I must get out more!

Thanks! Well, I drove out to find deserted roads to make this video - wouldn't do it downtown, not with just a single person. But the roads around here generally aren't too bad anyway. Plenty of almost empty mountain roads with insanely low speed limits....

that guy 04-17-2017 09:40 AM

It was very warm and sunny over the weekend despite the forecast of rain and cool temperatures. We took the XJS out to visit several of the local breweries instead of spring cleaning. I have the top torn off right now, so there wasn't an option if it did rain.

warrjon 04-17-2017 08:27 PM

Just drive faster.


Hmmmm spring cleaning or a road trip in the XJS.... a no-brainer........

This rubber is superfluous

orangeblossom 04-20-2017 04:23 AM

The Rubber Mat is only there to protect the Car Mat that protects another Car Mat, that protects the Original Jaguar Car Mat........

Some Day, Some Day 04-20-2017 05:05 AM

At that rate there'll be no room for your feet....

Daim 04-20-2017 02:20 PM

My XJ doesn't have any mats other than the carpet. My XJ-S has the original carpets (though they need replacing at the front) with originalrubber trays on top. The trays will be ditched though, as I don't intend on using the car in mucky conditions.

Btw. the only picture I took today was of my other Jag, as it has been crashed into... Even though it didn't even have a tranny in it to move! Front of the car is badly damaged. Probably written off... Yay! :(

How do the vents work?

revski666 04-22-2017 07:02 AM

nice they release hot air

Some Day, Some Day 04-22-2017 07:09 AM

I've seen similar ones on other threads from time to time. It's an interesting concept. What's the structure? Where does the water drain? How much cooler does your car run with them?

that guy 04-22-2017 07:50 AM

I also wonder where the water drains. I found vents that I would like to use from a Lumina Z34 but I doubt there is room for the pans that go below the vents.

-Prepping to remove rust for a respray. So far, only one of the tabs is too rusty to salvage.

Daim 05-05-2017 11:59 AM

Would be this picture, as my XJ-S is visible :D

https://c1.staticflickr.com/5/4187/3...aa793b36_b.jpg

Yes, it shows a VW but it is my current loaner until my XJ is sorted and appropriately the number plate is XJ as well (like mine :D)

fuel regulators
 
1 Attachment(s)
the look of the fuel pressure regulator were letting the side down a bit so I thought I would give them a new look with new decals the one in the picture is only a draft for the artwork and held down with spit, the new ones will be modern vinyl. when they arrive,
so I took a picture after.
