debadge entire car, install Bently hood ordainment and fool errrybody!
Every time I see one of those I think its a bently going by for some reason. I love the looks of them. PLEASE put some pipes on it, they sound cool as fuck IMO.
my fiance’s mother had one, and she couldnt wait to get rid of it. Mechanically it was a POS and ALWAYS had problems. She traded it in for a 09 lexus. Her’s was also a 05.
good luck with it. Hopefully it doesnt break down weekly on you, like it did for her.
its a Jag, its GOING to break, weekly. Cars are badass though and I love their R lineup. Woulda been super-ballin if it was an XJ-R. I fucking <3 those.
One question: when you going to finally buy something that won’t get its ass whooped by my dumpy Cobra?? :hug :hug
good seein ya the other day man, stay in touch!! congrats on the purchase!
Haha ive told friends that it looks like a bentley…i hated the car for the first 15mins and then it just started growing on me. Id like to put an exhaust on it, but i figure its a sleeper the way it sits and shouldnt attract too much attention…
Well see as time goes on, im sure ill wanna louden it up a bit. I havent heard one with an exhaust but i did see a video on street fire of the same car with a pulley and custom exhaust ran 12.8 at 112.
My ex gf’s parents had a XJ-R white…soooo sick, same motor thats in this car. Im expecting some little bullshit here and there and i know what Jag’s are notorious for, but i did my homework before purchasing and believe it or not this is one of the most reliable Jag’s ever made as far as TSB’s and non-scheduled maintenance. Nice to see you too!! If your off this friday we should meet up and go for a cruise i got Fridays off from work now.
Thanks man! Yeah i cant argue with what i got for what i payed and what they gave me for trade…I wasnt expecting it from Keeler but they were very fair and willing to work.
Only plan for mods is to tint the windows. Id consider throwing an exhaust on it, but not anytime soon. Id just like to enjoy it for now.
