Yes, you are probably correct, I do mis it but although it was a great looking car and everyone was enthusiastic about it, I wasn't using it and I wanted something more reliable and less maintenance ie a more modern car, long story for this time in the morning, but went through a few cars following the Jag.
These are now, one modern and one older (1990), after everything modern I still needed something a bit more classic to tinker with.

Hi, It's a Turbo S, the quick visual difference between the turbo and C4S are the air intakes just behind the doors, thank you for your comment.

No I didn't, but I would have done, I do mis the E type at times but it could never compete as a driving car like the 911.
Saying that, if I had the Jag now I would upgrade all the bits like suspension, brakes etc.
I keep looking at other cars and I will test drive the F Type, but even if I had one I would still keep a 911.

Just had a meeting with Jaguar, what did they turn up in ?, a red F Type, all I can say it looks superb in the flesh and the sound, very very addictive, on start up with no throttle applied it just burbles into life , blips the throttle and givers a good junk of a over run burble.

Great work with the 911s Steve. All Porsches are true drivers cars and everyone with any interest in driving should try a 911 at some point. Recent turbo versions are amazing, if a little too quick for the real world, but they excel on the track.

A standard Carrera is just about right for our clogged up roads in my opinion.

The 90s cars are becoming real classics now.
