Thought it looked familiar !
Quick question I noticed on list of cars you had a xkr 2007 which you sold and now have a xkr 2008 why did you sell then re buy? did you have the vw-r36 in between ?

 

That's mine Steve bought it in March! They had a Black 2009 in April

I lived for a year in England in 2009, the 07 I bought had 5k miles on it and was mint cost me less as a two year old than my seven year old did in Sydney. I bought the R36 Wagon new when I got back to Oz in 2010 I had to get something very different it was excellent

Here is my 2007 XKR

 

I really like that color it appears it changes in tone dependent on the light

 

The X350 is a big car so why does the XF look like such an ugly behemoth next to it?? The XJ looks tiny.

 

The 07 was more of a blue Grey whilst my 08 is an Opal Grey is the best way to describe them

Here's me keeping it British

 

Very nice pic !!
Such a shame as I'm located in Australia I doubt ill ever see a xj220 in the flesh your a lucky man !

 

I'll tell ya.. It looks as fresh and exciting today as it did when it came out. I remember when it came out and was on display at the Boston Auto Show. I was stunned then, and now I get to see up close and just as floored. The engine bay is race looking like an F40 or Ford GT. Jag had a home run with car; on my post-lottery purchase spree.

 

About ten years ago I was called on to do some work for a designer at a large home about 30 minutes north of Los Angeles. It turned out to be a pediatric dentist with whom I went to junior and senior high school, who was a friend. I did catch a glimpse of an XJ220 in his garage!

Still different and stunning after all these years.

 

Steve, the Classic Throttle Shop in North Sydney had a 220 sometime last year
Cheers
Mike

 

Oh really ! I missed out !
Classic throttle shop rings a bell I remember reading somewhere that they had veyron on display there

 

Just looked it was April 2013, only one I have ever seen in Australia so a surprise. It wasn't being offered for sale!

 

Technically so ahead of its time , more power than it's Porsche and Ferrari rivals and posted a very decent time around the Ring it's a shame jaguar pulled the plug on it's modern day equivalent

 

Mike
Spotted this up near your way en route to my favourite chicken shop

 

It's a sign ! Sell my e550 and get a rangie

 

Not sure about the Evoque, it would have to be a full on Rangie for me Steve

 

No second measures your right didn't realise how small they are
