The leaper seems to be leaping right to left and outside of one photo of dozens I looked at on other X150s, it is headed in the right direction.

Not flipped. If you zoom in, you can read text on the bottom of the license plate frame, and the middle word is 'Jaguar'.

I've never seen a right-facing leaper on the back of anything.
Guess I know now.

Here is a photo of my XK in front of one of Tucson's many murals. Jaguars are making a comeback in the wild in Southern Arizona. This mural depicts one of those magnificent animals.

I was referring to the leaper in the photo in post #407 and 409. I think you may be looking at #418 and 420.

Great looking XK you have there - super condition!

The image of the jaguar is awesome, superb backdrop for your car - Tucson must have a great ethos regarding the natural environment.

Thanks ! i preferred a more classic look, combined with the gorgeous lines. XKR was tempting, but since i'm more a cruiser that a racer decided to go for the n/a

Been changing up my Jag a little bit. Getting it ready to put away for the winter and installing a full airbag suspension system from guys at airbagit. Next summer Im hoping to attend a few cross country rally runs so I want it done by then.

And here is a quick video I made of it.




edit:... In case anyone wants to know what the airbag kit consist of here is the parts list in the first email they sent me. Its make to fit my 2007 XK. Its pricey at around 1800 without the upgrades and about 2800 with all the fancy upgrades.

FRONT AIR STRUTS(INCLUDES AIRBAGS)

REAR AIR KIT(INCLUDES AIRBAGS AND MOUNTING BRACKETS)

3 GALLON HIGH-PRESSURE AIRTANK(OPTIONAL 5GALLON AIRTANK)

COMPRESSOR PSI CUT-OFF SWITCH

4 WAY ELECTRIC AIR-VALVE SETUP 3/8" 160PS(INDEPENDENT CORNER CONTROL)

3/8 HI-PRESSURE AIRHOSE & FITTING KIT

4 FAST RESPONSE SWITCH-PANEL(OPTIONAL 10-SWITCH CONTROL UPGRADE UPON REQUEST)

(2) LIGHTED PSI GAUGES(OPTIONAL DIGITAL GAUGE UPGRADE UPON REQUEST)

This kit will lower 4-5" and ride best at 2-3" below stock height. We can customize ride height as well. Will you be driving at 2" below stock or ? This ride quality will be improved and as well carrying capicity. Please check attached details and let me know what you think or any questions. Hope to hear from you soon!

That is certainly a different look, Ridicrick - I'm not sure I like the wheels, but the slammed style is interesting. Would never survive London streets, though - I have to be careful over speed bumps in the 75, and it's only 10mm lower than a standard XKR.

Guessing, but: the bit you posted from the suspension supplier could have been seen as advertising. You probably didn't intend it that way, but the mods are quite strict about anything that looks like product promotion.
