    Bye Bye Baby

    BMW has been sold today to make way for another car, made a tidy profit even with insurance costs but still sad to see it go.

    All clean'd up for the new owner,

    Ya I always wanted one but piers had one and said the handling was almost dangerous at low speed, now that I've made a bit of money I can spend it on a XJS/XJR with better suspension.

    It's been raining here and had my last drive, off goes the traction control on goes 200bhp to the rear wheels

    ER RU RU RU RU RUR RUR it's a lot easier to do when there not your tyres

    Been to see a really good 1989 3.6l XJS today and thats probably will be what I'm getting.

    It will be a working project in some terms, mostly bodywork wise but is a beast of a car even now.

    Re: Bye Bye Baby

    I eventually went for a 5.3 V12 HE version of the XJS after looking at quite a few purely on good engine/gearbox/ extremely good body work/underside.

    The interior is shabby to say the least at the moment but £400-600 later and it will be like brand new which of course is a lot cheaper than a good interior and £1600+ for bodywork.

    Couple of things like wheel tracking and minor issues but I can sort them.

    I started cleaning all the sponge/interior/carpets as it was full sun shine literally 15 minutes ago and its started to rain so only pictures I got at 4am and some a couple of minutes ago from inside.


    Going to be a fun project and while fuel is cheap I want the chance to run one of these cars for probably the last time in my life,

    The V12 grumble is also just awesome although a couple of backbox's would help the sound as the ones atm are crap, the alloys are also beeing changed to the much nicer lattice ones that were included in the deal for the car.

    It's fully driveable now but I would want the wheels/tyres swapped over and tracking before a long journey, it will be going to i37.

    If not I'll just take the galaxy or if it really comes to it the 106.
