Remember the days when sex was safe and motorsport was dangerous. Vintage bling always attracts pussy.

I love the shape of those, they just look right, and thats a brilliant engine choice, I wonder if we'll see a resurgance of Jag powered British stuff as the engines are getting cheaper again.

Volvo back as my main squeeze, more boost and some interior goodies on the way.

My name is Alex. I used to have a Capri. I don't anymore. But I am still called Capri.

He did mention the VDP Princess lump when I was talking to him, it had a Jag XK engine after that.

I like. I'd have that rear spoiler off it in minutes though if it were mine.
Like Jack I've seen it about before. Still good to see it in its current guise.
So what's next?

He was talking about more power, but hey, wouldn't we all. What I absolutely loved about it was the typical blower wail as on the standard blown Jag V8s, but only more so. Coming from a 1930s family car...
