Yep that works.

 

Did a Moderator edit DGL's post #9, above, and delete my reply? As I recall, DGL rightfully called me a "smart ***" when he posted that Alamy photo. But it's not there now, and neither is my reply. So here's what I recall my reply was:

Confucius says "Smart *** make wise crack".
Is buttcheeks one word, or do you separate them?

 

Cee Jay, you showed me the light at the end of the tunnel during these difficult times and put a smile on my face... Stuart, Confucius says, "delete that obscene picture you posted that no Jaguar owner should ever see, I've given you the power to rise up". I hope no one is suffering from PTSD.

 

That'll cure PTSD and anything else that ails ya!

 

To make this XK centric and little more PG...

2009-2011's XKR's, which I look at the market reguarly, have not bein in large supply, this isn't recent.9
The amount produced during the post banking crash was dramatically less, and it never seemed to pick up to 2007 levels after.

When it isn't boom times, people also tend for less joyous colors, so a 5.0L XKR tends to be more on the drab side.
They do still look good in any color I've seen. I do wish there'd been demand for more vibrant colors on the 5.0L.

Emerald Fire, Jaguar Racing Green, Salsa Red, good colors.

At least the XKR-S got French Racing Blue.

 

However the market for XKRs goes, I'm just looking at Vanquishes. That market seems to be unchanged by all this stuff.
