Fucking S800 Honda in that pic!

I had one many years ago (NAF 5F) that my stepfather borrowed and wrote off! He then had to give me money and I bought my Toyota Crown. An excellent result I thought.

Used the Jag, it's a lovely old heap, it really is. Smooth, fast(ish) and very quiet.

As a bonus, Bella has one rear window while his royal Chesterness has the other, It's good fun using the door mirrors and see a mutts face/ears/jowls flapping about in the breeze!

I was never a fan of the R170, steering box seems to deaden the steering and personally, I just like the R171 front end more. However, that looks a bit of alright.

Oh yeah... I ordered a continuation Service Book for the Jag on Sunday evening (eBay) with a delivery date for Friday to Monday of next week. It arrived this morning!

It;s a jolly good read as well, interesting for non-fiction

My fucking Jaguar has one of those bloody Ford keys! Cheap-ass bastards!

I snapped the key clean off in the boot lid of 'my' (wife really) new Ford Granada (mk3). Bit of a bugger as I'd just put the dogs in the boot! Fortunately, the sunroof was partly open and so the missus, who was yet another of my petite blondes (Kyle's Mum) managed to squeeze and arm through enough ...
