I like how they say "slight crack in head gasket" 

Erm- how would you know for sure without pulling the head off? And if there's a crack it doesn't really matter how big it is! 

TLDR; it's done the head in 

Bottle of Steel Seal and chuck it back up on Bumtree double your money!!

Nice XJS with recent engine rebuild. I know you used to get these for pennys but I don't think this price is totally unreasonable.

It doesn’t look a bad price, it’s clearly not fell into the hands of some absolute fool as it’s not got the obligatory chrome arches and Irish plate.

Thank you. That would be a nearly 300 mile trip one way, I think the cost of transportation would make it not worthwhile. I think £1 a mile is normally pretty cheap these days? So at least £300 ish just to get it here

Thank you though for the kind offer of asking for details, but I'm 'oot :(

i think it would be a bit of a pisstake to "pre-book an MOT M9" ;)

 

No problem man. 

Yeah, £300 on transport would make it a bit uneconomical! 

It would be a very satisfying thing to get back on the road, hopefully someone does!

I love these, the large family next door to me when I was a kid had loads of them that inevitably died and another slightly less rusty was procured.  There's one in my profile picture.  

I could relive my youth for HFM?

My father is selling his vauxhall VX1800 and has asked to post to this site for him. He bought this car last year from a gentleman in airdrie and its been his daily use car since then. He is selling as he has just purchased the wolseley.

Looks okay for the price but there's probably still plenty of hidden grot. Likely weldathon in 2020 looking at history. This one went for £1420 today & my seasoned XJ-S snout reckons it's not too far from an MOT.  I was almost tempted to put in a cheeky bid.
