I think thats sadly out of budget, otherwise it would be a good fit! also some idea of what the crustiness of the underside would be nice! (sadly no MOT history) (and mums not a fan of automatics, although funnily enough her Volvo 244 was an auto I will say she does like her volvos) I appreciate the heads up tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eddyramrod Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 You need a bigger shed, young man! Or you could just reverse Huggy in until the back bumper touches, and just leave the front sticking out. Front bumper is already ruined so it needn't be a worry... Thank you for the picture comment btw. They've now repainted the shop pearl grey, so Huggy doesn't match any longer! :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spartacus Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Wow, that's a blast from the past. I'm sure one of those featured in my 'Observers Book of Motorcycles', that I had in my youth. Being quite short then, (and now), it was of interest to me because of the low seat height. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broadsword Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 If this is as described then it's a sensibly priced good example of a V8 blower Jag. Something tells me it's not a bad one.

I like the seller’s offer of a gander on a ramp and then rustproofing it: if he makes good on all that stuff then I’d say winner. Lovely spec, too.

(Apart from the tints, obvs.) Yeah, those tints need to go, then it would look like an honest example. Bare in mind you are getting 370 bhp for £3k (I bet he might take a bit off, surely), they are exceedingly fast, it's a decent proposition. I like the offer to inspect it too. I guess it's no skin off his nose I guess if the guy runs a bodyshop. The headlining is a bit of downer but they are actually very easy to retrim DIY. I did an X300 with the DIY retrim kit and it was dead easy with the front seats out. I even have enough material left over to do another.

When I had my Sprint I went to the dealers between Morriston and Swansea. They were so appalling that everyone else looked comparatively better.
