• Have your eyes wide open. Series XJs are lovely but I've never heard of an unrestored one that wasn't hiding catastrophic corrosion.
    Series 2s are also the ugliest and least reliable, having been made in the darkest BL days with terrible component supplies. That sort of money would get you a newer, faster, lighter, more economical and reliable Aluminium XJ. I know which I'd rather have, despite it not looking as good.

  • Sensible advice is sensible. It does amaze me how you can pick up an early 70s Jag for so cheap, but like you say cheap for well known reasons. Personally I prefer the looks of series II to series III cars but much appreciated for the cold hard advice.
