What about the Rover SD1 in the background of the Jag photo?
Actually that picture was taken before I bought it, could not find a picture of when I had it myself. Got it in Oxfordshire from a guy who mostly dealt in classic Rovers. Hence the SD1.
About the XJS... a lifelong dream, most beautiful car in history IMHO, but what a nightmare it turned out to be. Apart from spending most of its time at the mechanic's while I owned it, it developed an infuriating condition whereby the heating was always on full blast and there was no way to stop it. Very uncomfortable as a family car

only needs minor work to get road worthy, it is very clean inbellow, no signs of rot at all bar a couple small bits size of a 5 p, have bought 2 nos wings, full exhaust system for it but now it just needs striped down, sanded and resprayed, the engine runs great, starts no bother and has only 36 thousand miles done, its auto at the minute but mite keep it that way cause would like keep it totally original as possible cause dnt think there is many of these left in ireland, but would love to change it over to manual. this is going to be my first car ive restored, i just like the look of it and seem a great little car,

It's true what they say, not all banger drivers are wreckers!
Welcome to boards Mr McIvor.
I don't think anyone else on here owns a Mazda like that one, nice to see one escape the crusher.0 -

The mark 1 needed 3 weeks of welding even to make it safe to banger race, wouldnt wreck a car if its too good, this was bought to race as i bought it without seeing it but once i lifted it i couldnt wreck it0 -
