The Pix I had planned to attach?
Now I have gone to my second XK8, a 2006 Ebony Victory Edition that will need some work, but I guess that's I why we love these cars. The Nav system will be going, and a few other things, but as a retiree, I guess that's I why I have all this time to spend??

XK8 at the Erie Canal
My XK8 at the Widewater’s Marina on the bank of the Erie Canal. Lockport, NY
This is my XK150 that I took a picture in the same place in 1983. Note that the bridge has been updated in the picture with a the XK8.
Here is a picture that I took of my XK8 near the Canal in Lockport, NY

Beautiful cars, remind me of the early XKE
I started seeing the XKs on this site about 2 month ago and they were so impressive to me that I started looking for one myself . That , as so many of them are , is breathtaking. Thank you for sharing !! BTW I found mine , and now I have one sitting in my garage right next to my Vanden Plas .

My Vanden Plas came with the same 16" wheels you have, I changed them.
They are the same as you have on your XK, called Double-Fives, fitted with 245/45 front, and 275/40 on the rear ... just for looks .....
I think they do very well on the Vanden Plas indeed.
And I figured it out, put the XK in auto drive, then follow with the XJ to enjoy the lines .
