I know of two which need rescuing. Maybe only the one now, not been past where the other is languishing. Shame that they often seem to cost more to restore than their market value and end up broken and/or bangered. I'm always tempted. Its the Jag thats "most me."

A MK10 seems just the sort of broken you should be adding to your broken car collection

they are a stunning shape! i love jags -classic or modern and these are definitely up there on the top of my want list
|

I then wanted to start cleaning the interior as it stinks of wood (the material not the smell of a boner) best quote ever! |

For many years there was a Mk10 in Holyhead, not a lot knew about it as it was parked in a barn out in the stick's. If that wasn't bad enough for the old Jag, it was also completely covered in cow curse word, with only the winscreen visable. It was eventually rescued, but from that day I have no idea as to it's fate. Jag Mk10 lovely car's.  |

One I've only ever driven past so no idea, one is owned by a mate and I think he'd want about £2K for it. |

I bought a 420G about 11 years ago for £1!! Its a light green colour with green interior, engine and box are amazingly sweet. Its in a dry lockup at a freidns house about 40 miles from my place. The shell is solid, but the front wings are both shot!  |

When I was a wee laddie my uncle had one of these.
I remember him ripping the exhaust off by scapping of the drive gate flap. A tank and a half!
