I have already spent 23,000 on simple upgrades. I do not really care what it costs., however, as I’ve already said, good luck with your project. I hope it goes well.

There have been a number of replies bordering on the offensive since this thread started but this crosses the line and is unacceptable. A ONE MONTH BAN this time. If you choose to return after it and there's any repetition, I'll make it considerably longer.

Unfortunately I've had to wade through all these pages of repetitive drivel following complaints. It amazes me that several members have chosen to respond to this nonsense and the content hasn't approached any nearer to reality since Norri posted an earlier warning.

So I asked ChatGpt to write a poem about a guy wanting to upgrade his car for 214 mph:

In a town of speed, where engines roar,
Lived a guy with a Jag, he wanted much more.
His XKR convertible, sleek and so fine,
But 214 mph? That'd be divine!

He dreamed of the upgrades, a speedster's delight,
Turbochargers whirling, taking flight.
He called his mechanic, with a hopeful grin,
"Make my Jag soar, let the race begin!"

The mechanic chuckled, with a twinkle in his eye,
"214 mph? Oh, my, oh, my!"
He tinkered and toiled, with tools in hand,
To give that Jag the speed it'd never withstand.

Our guy hit the road, wind in his hair,
With a grin so wide, like he hadn't a care.
Zooming past cars, a lightning flash,
His Jaguar now a supersonic dash.

At 214 mph, he felt the thrill,
His upgraded Jag, the king of the hill.
Through towns and valleys, he zipped and zoomed,
In his souped-up Jag, his dream was bloomed.

But as the speedometer climbed, faster and faster,
He realized, perhaps, this was a disaster.
Too fast for the road, too fast for the law,
His dream of 214, a bit of a flaw.

Thanks, Mcjag. Very refreshing! This thread is been a bit of an unusual thing to see in this forum, and some winsome humor is welcome. Cheers, all, and have a great Christmas!

I believe you were all unknowingly beta-testing someone's AI.

More from ChatGPT::

In a courtroom drama, with papers flying high,
There stood poor Frank, with a mournful sigh.
His Jaguar gleaming, once the talk of the town,
Now pawned off to pay lawyers, he wore a frown.

For his marriage had hit a colossal snag,
And to settle the score, he lost his Jag.
His wife demanded a hefty fee,
But little did he know, it'd come from his V8 spree.

Oh, how he'd roar down the streets so grand,
With the wind in his hair, feeling so grand.
But now, in the courtroom, his pride took a dive,
As his lawyer said, "Jack, you'll have to drive...
something less alive."

So off went the Jag, to a new owner's delight,
While Jack hobbled home in the dead of night,
His dreams of open roads now dashed away,
Yet at least he's free to drive into a new day.

I only came on this site to explain and made an XKR 5 L supercharged convertible into the second fastest fully convertible car in the world which I thought people would be pleased about yet they want to complain that it’s on a rolling road Dyno obviously I can see that and yes, cause a lot differently when they’re having to push air out of the way or if there’s a crosswind or if there’s a tailwind, but I have asked Rally and check experience, also once it has been re-sprayed again, it’s going to be stored until swallows racing make it an eight-speed manual and if anyone down that phone Tom


Is seems people on here are just jealous of someone trying to achieve something that has never been done before with a Jaguar

I have the time and the money so I’m going to do it no matter what, and anyone with a Jaguar that would like to race my car once it has a manual transmission and racing wheels I’m up for it anytime anyplace anywhere!
let's race 1/4

Having read the entire tread...
I dig the wife...

Sorry, couldn't resist.

Selling a car that was allowed to take unlimited budget for updates, needs to sell to pay a few hours to a laywer is a hilarious pull down feet to the ground.

o wait, the wife was the income generator.
in that case...it makes sense. And wish the best (sincerely)
