Lovely to hear of another car with a bit of a story dear to its owner. I’ve had my similar spec car for about 5 months, I hope you get the same pleasure and smiles per miles from yours.
Here’s my car’s story if you fancy being bored !

Bruce, if you are running 20" wheels I've just put a set of P-zero's in the classifieds.

No more tramlining, skittishness, road noise reduced massively and the steering self centres much quicker yet smooth...

Many thanks Mike, exactly what I was hoping to hear. I’m

I'm looking for a quiet and soft riding tyre for my 20" Sepangs ( on a 4.2 SOV LWB)and they seem ideal from what you've said. I have Pirellis at the moment with plenty of tread but I've never been a fan of them on any ca...

Any update on these now it's been a year or so?

Many thanks for the welcome Richard.
Pm returned .. I think ! (Still getting the hang of it on here!)

Hello to all on this site. I’ve recently (this week in fact), acquired a 2007 4.2 XJ LWB. There’s a bit of a poignant back story to it, which meant it became the “ Readers car of the week”on PistonHeads.Here’s the link if anybody is interested... https://www.pistonheads.com/news/general-pistonheads/...
