Hi Pop,
Splendid photo.
It looks like quite a walk up to the lighthouse
Still, the walk down must have been nice.
I hope the XJ-S wasn't lonely for too long. Being lonely at Beachy head can be very bad for one's health
Cheers,
Glenn.

Oh, it's an XJ-S is it ? I thought it was a speck on my monitor
Pop, I know Beachy Head, as I live just along the coast in the Brighton area.
Regards, Julian
P.S Mine at the same car park as yours in 2003 -

Must be a real pleasure driving these roads in the XJS. I love having the power under my right foot and looking along the gorgeous bonnet. Only trouble I find is that, although not particularly tall, my hair rubs on the headlining and causes static so I look a bit like Ken Dodd sometimes when I arrive at my destination! I could try leaning back a bit more but I prefer an upright position. Still - I can certainly live with it, did consider the convertable but to be honest I find an open top too noisy on our busy roads. I also have a stag and a few blasts in it is enough to satisfy the open top urges!
