Jaguar XJ220

[PaulTRose]

next thing on the bench


doing this for a GB somewhere else where the theme is 'Big Cats'......since its predominantly a military forum, there lots of Puma and Lynx helos and the odd Jaguar jet...............i was going to do a Panther tank but ive got a big armour project coming up soon so didnt want to do one.......so as Clarkson used to say......'cos its a Jaaaaaag!'

picked this up for a fiver at the Newark auto jumble a few years ago, found it amongst all sorts of junk on a stall, dont think the guy realised it was worth more than the £5

Well, what is there to say: A Jag, XJ220 at that. British racing green, has to be. And a bargain. All boxes ticked and ready and waiting.

And would you 'Adam and Eve it' Friday just gone, I saw another one, not too far from where I saw the first. That has to be too much of a coincidence.
