@@kevinmanns7170 Hey Kevin. Would you say the same can be said for all X350/X358s? I am willing to spend decent money - 8 or 9 grand, and would be happy with a 3 litre. I have a Jazz for nipping around town, and will have a SLK350 for occasional fun but I also want a wafter, which despite their reputation, the Lexus GS300 doesn't deliver (ride too firm).

I don't run cars on shoestring, I live by the mantra "an expensive car new is an expensive car used" but I do want something reasonably reliable.
The build thread of this car on the Jaguar forum “super v8” is a good read, the attention to detail Alec has gone to is on another level, not only does he modify this super v8, buts he’s also got a nice m6 too, top bloke 👍
I only saw that paint once on a new Portfolio back in the day. It's very hard to understand just how freaking gorgeous that paint is. It almost looks like it's black with very dark red mica dust mixed in the clear coat. It only really looks red wheresunlight is hitting the curves and flukes in the body. So hot!
What a great video! This is my kind of car. I love big luxury barges. I almost bought a Black on white, xjr-6 supercharged when I was a young lad. Thou I love the new xj, you can’t beat their old design, they will stay beautiful forever :)
This is one of those cars that will always appeal to me to, when they’re done right they look great, and the sound is amazing. Alec is in his early twenties and has had it a few years. *ben
This XJ is just amazing. The interior is beautiful. The two tone leather, the rear buckets (how did he get the power buckets) the exterior...everything. If you ever speak to him again, please ask him for a guide on how to modify an XJ like his!!!
Fantastic car. I admire your passion. You have just convinced me that I need a big xj in my life. Ideally the 09 aluminium one. Some good bargains floating around. Congrats on the car and the effort you have put in. Great video. 👍
Hello, I hav a jaguar XJ8 super v8 ! Mine is an 05..platinum metallic! It’s a very rewarding car..it’s a kind of car ppl dream to hav or compliment but never will own due to their bad rep in the 80s and how they lack 4wd. I can’t go anywhere w out someone complimenting my car! Mine is of corse fully loaded ..which just about all of them r ! At $100,000 ..back in 05!!! Navigation ..double dvd headrest and active cruise control & bbs wheels 20” r the big ones! I love it and besides a rolls ..next to the Mercedes s-class ..it’s my fav car! The car is not cheap to maintain..every time I turn around the car needs something. Altho my inspection was exempt due to me driving it under 5k miles in a yr. only cost $300 and something! I hav a guy who thankfully works on them and isn’t afraid. Whenever it’s under 30 degrees out or heavy rain fall ..it’ll read air suspension fault..the car will go from driving like a dream to driving like ur on a road w/ nothing but gravel/ small rocks..it’s a glitch coz then it’ll go right back to normal after. She’s my spare car and I’ve yet to hit 100k miles. I take very good care of her ..but the like I said , the cost to fix isn’t cheap..I’ve left paying well over a thousand dollars sometimes! Thankfully I hav insurance that is great so I only paid $200 ..but I hit the back of a girl in a corolla ..9 grand in damage!!! Then an old woman hit me ..and 5k in damage..that was at no cost for me. Ur paying for parts oldie the car as if the car was new. Which r also hard to find today! I do not recommend the car if ur not a car person or don’t hav a mechanic. I’d go w/ a Lexus ls430 or 60. Most likely due to it not having 4wd I may eventually sell. Altho I’ve never had any complications in bad weather. It’s a solid machine! I hav a guy that’s interested but if u r ..let me know..I’m looking to get a Mercedes s550 ..2010 to 13..must be 4 matic and only considering the dark red, white diamond or silver. I want a one owner and I’m willing to pay $$$ if it’s nice enough! If u hav one or ur a dealer ..let me kno! Believe it or not , I got the jaguar as a gift..So it’s fully paid off and u could say I got the car for free. I won’t give away the car b/c it’s too nice of a car and all the common problems hav been fixed. It’s a solid car..clean title ..spent most it’s life in palm beach FL! Let me kno! Positive responses only!
Freaking amazing how Jaguar used to detune their engines for the American market. On the previous 308 steel low bodies they had the throttle cable adjusted so when you floored it you weren't really flooring it. They cut it back by 20%. Cheapest hp improvement you could ever made on the 98-03 XJ series.
Fair play my friend not everyone has the charisma of clarkson ... but your a clear jag fan and that rivals pubic persona ... style over substance mind you I’m sure clarkson would love your car 👍

I'm buying a low mileage 2009 here in America. I am doing some custom work as well. Coming with some racing knowledge in my background, I'd recommend if you want some more bite on launch... Get a couple softer compound tire on the back wheels. Not a legitimate wrinkle wall... but it should help with the tire spinning. Oh...and you might want to preplan with caution, that harder hooking can create breakage to the rear if you really are repeatedly smashing the throttle. But hope that helps. I love the channel and this video. Great job 👍
