barefoot Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 I am so pleased that all the Jaguars are up in Scotland.I'm dreading one being sold anywhere within a hundred mile radius of my house. Skoze, brickwall, billyboy406v6 and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pillock Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 I'm hanging my nose over Jags but unsure if I'll get one in the garage. It's good to know I've got a guaranteed sale if I buy one and it won't fit barefoot, Magnificent Rustbucket and Partridge 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DSdriver Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 I would so love one of those - I love the rectangular headlamps and the colour but not the see-through floor. It is a shame I am under strict instructions not to buy any more cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forddeliveryboy Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 Replace petrol pipe B4 welding floors, prospective buyer. Sounds so ridiculously obvious but I've known otherwise intelligent people do exactly that.

Partridge Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 Like mushrooms? Can you grow them in a box in the loft, and they start off as DAFs and grow into 760s? cms206, Magnificent Rustbucket, forddeliveryboy and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best you get if you plant DAFs is a 345, my dope-smoking friends tell me. And that's using loads of lights.

CortinaDave Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 Man up you southern softies. I'm up in Fife, wanted the calibra RobT was flogging in London, so just flew down and got it. 1 hour long flight from Edinburgh airport, and an enjoyable drive back. Same story with the cortina - I bought it from Saltash in Cornwall. Aberdeen and Glasgow are a cheap as chips Easyjet flight away. Can be had for as little as 17 quid. The risk is when you're buying blind at a distance, but shiters tend to be pretty trustworthy in my experience. I've had a couple of cars off kinkersaab (the other jag seller) and he's a thoroughly nice chap. forddeliveryboy, fotorabia, RobT and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cms206 Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 I've had a 740 from Brighton and a 960 from Bristol, Dave's had a 760 from Brighton, a 740 from London and a 960 from Cardiff, Adrian had a 740 from Norfolk... SVM rules state that it's only far away if it's over a sea. Unfortunately as can be seen above, Glasgow is too close at approximately 9 miles away from CMS_TOWERS and it's not a Volvo, so I'm out.

vulgalour Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 I'll just throw my Thornaby to London by train, London to Thornaby by Corsa B against the clock mission in to quieten the 'too far away' excuses a little further too. This car is full of cows and trees and the same colour as a strawberry Mivvi, anyone who wants one should buy this one and sort the niggles, it's lovely. eddyramrod, 320touring and Magnificent Rustbucket 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

320touring Posted April 6, 2015 Author Share Posted April 6, 2015 How much is it?It is up for offers or swaps- Due to short MOT and aforementioned welding requirements, I'd be happy with as close to £500 as I could get:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiny Norman Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 I've already had the fun of owning an XJ40 and not only that, I came out of the experience with my wallet totally unscathed (apart from the 21mpg it averaged during the time I had it), so much as I'm tempted by the posher trim in this one, I know when Karma is telling me to behave myself so I'll decline with a GLWTS.I can tell any prospective purchaser that it starts first kick, even in proper Scottish summer weather... dome, Charlie Croker, eddyramrod and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
