jaguar xjr-s and jeremy clarkson

Poetry in motion.

I love watching old clarkson videos, there is no one else quite like him.

@sidescrollin and mustangs and camaros couldnt even reach 200 with V8s the same or larger displacement

@mustachos1993 why does everyone assume a v12 makes a shitload of hp?? its just a different way of doing the same thing, they just deliver power more smoothly. Also...can you try to remember this is an 80s car?? In 1985 this car made 285bhp with a 5.3l v12 while corvettes were only making around 200hp.

XJS rules and all the people slating it know it, secretly. :P

That "Big Brit Bruiser" is a PIECE OF SHIT! They should have pushed that crap downhill, with Afroman in it.

This car was a production fault, I can't believe people actually bought this carp

@DThaeman LOL Yes the Turbo ones. You're probably right about the car's virginity and the piece of mind it gives you...but yeah i still see them go for somewhere between $10,000 and $20,000 easy and yes even modified ones and every once in a while more than $20,000. It's all on the condition because i definitely see some that sale for less that $10,000. Good observation though.

@MrZLeroy92 must have been a turbo.. theyre only worth that much as VIRGINS with super low mileage.. its hard to find a 300ZX TT that hasnt been modified or ruined in an attempt to make it faster, what you're buying is the car's virginity... piece of mind that some jackass hasn't built himself into a corner and sold the car in a desperate attempt to cut his losses and get out while he still can
