Dear All

For those who don't read The Daily Telegraph the old XJS snuck under the wire into the top fifty at No. 47. :D

E-Type No. 1 and XK series No. 3.

See the whole list and pics here

really enjoyed looking through those pics.
Did anyone else notice that the xk-ss(number11) looks remarkably like the xk180 in one of todays other posts.
Or more to the point the xk180 looks like the xk-ss should i say.
Or is it just me who thinks so? :?:

I love my XJS, but the XJS at No. 47 and the XJ220 at No.80????????

Are there many people who really believe that the XJS is prettier than a 220?

1980 XJ-S Pre-HE

Errm...........actually I do, at the risk of being in a minority of one I've never found the XJ220 design particularly attractive, it's all just a bit too big and bulbous........rather like a beached whale :?
