      @@gingerninjer355 Bruh, your taking a comment, on a youtube video by a guy who's schtick is that he makes financially terrible decisions while never having the knowhow or tools to actually fix his own car, too seriously. Perhaps he has battery packs, and doesn't want to dig one out of a trunk of his cars, when he can just use another car. It also makes for great video to show more of his cars off. Like do you genuinely think a person who could afford to spend tens of thousands on cars that he'd never get back unless his video does well, who frequently has to deal with electrical issues in cars, wouldn't have a jump pack somewhere?

      The very first vehicle that I purchased was a new Chevy Blazer S10 in 1989. I kept it mint. The only thing I customized was some discreet pin-stripping on the exterior. It was reliable, pretty much indestructible with that V6-Vortec engine, didn't eat oil, and was pretty decent on the gas mileage (about 20 mpg). I ended up giving it to my dad years ago, who used it as a daily driver for work...he was driving about 40k miles per year with that thing...along with his dog, Stoli (our Vizsla and the S-10's co-pilot). Best dad-dog-vehicle combo ever!
      That S-10 finally died with over 400K miles to its clock....we think. The electronic LED display punched out early, at around 350K miles.
      Damn, we miss that dog...and the SUV-coupe.

    I would keep the Aston Martin too. That car is special, and that engine is special too, I agree you would never ever get one like it back.
    The Supercharged 3.2 litre AJ16 is a highly underrated and under appreciated engine, an inline straight six with smooth power delivery, waves of effortless torque...
    Jaguar made the 4.0 litre AJ16 their supercharged engine of choice for the first XJR, but it has a much longer stroke so it isn't as perky.
    Ford came along and installed the Jaguar Land Rover V8 engines from 1998 onwards that weren't anywhere near as reliable as the 1994-1997 inline sixes because it's what people wanted, but they lost the newly found reliability of the final iteration of inline sixes. They had finally fixed the electronics and the hardware.

      @@Biggles I absolutely get what you mean, the 4.0 is a highly capable engine and easy to love. The XJR is undoubtedly one of the most charismatic Jaguars to date, and I am very pleased to hear you're using yours as intended ;)
      The biggest differences between (most) XJRs and the DB7 is that manual gearbox. The Getrag really allows the AJ16 engine to show what it's made of in 4.0 or 3.2 flavour, but with the auto box most commonly in the Jaguar it makes the most sense to have the 4.0.
      We're getting to the point now where the inline 6's are becoming (almost) impossible to find outside of an eBay auction being parted out, so it is great to hear you're keeping the flame alive

    "It is the first electric SUV from a premium European automaker, and in its first year the I-Pace became one of the most highly decorated production cars ever, winning 62[3] international awards. In March 2019, the I-Pace won the European Car of the Year award, the first Jaguar to win in the 50-year history of the award.[4] In April 2019, the I-Pace became the 2019 World Car of the Year, also winning Best Design and Best Green Car awards, the first car to ever sweep three categories."

    Hi Las Vegas Craig here
    I was you 40 years ago every car I bought people told me I was crazy each car I had required it’s own wizard
    Including my 1970 Lotus Europa my wizard mechanic was a member originally of the lotus racing team until he ran into a wall and crushed his feet and legs he would roll around in the shop on a Flexi google it to see what a Flexi is
    In 1970 Lotus didn’t bother to reverse the threads on one of the rear wheels so when you drove a few hundred miles you’d have to get out and tighten it or
    your wheel would leave the axle trust me it’s very hard to drive on 3 wheels
    Anyway to the point of my comment
    It’s to compliment you on this video and it’s subjects I think this is one of the best videos of yours I’ve seen. I can feel your emotional involvement with each car and I understand exactly why you’re keeping the Aston Martin i’d like to own both of those cars myself
    Anyway

People always referred to it as the Typhoon and it was a completely different, specially made sedan for Ford lovers with extra cash and a dream car for the rest of the Ford fanbase that never had that kind of money. Once FPV was on the decline, European and Japanese vehicle sales were on the rise. The FPV division of Ford Australia was the last breath of performance and muscle car combined Australiana culture. The car culture is now derivative of UA-camrs from the US with noisy turbo diesel 4x4s and trucks whether they are actually used off-road or as pavement queens. That's what people want and want to be now. The muscle car as a mainstay of the core of the overall culture is dead and relegated to collectors and those who are "sitting" on nice cars people would like to see in public on the weekends. Have to pay to see a number of them at car shows. The 5 day per week minimum sighting of muscle cars is over.
