Newer Winter Smoker

Daimler wasn't really doing it for me, I needed a Jaaaaaaggg

Looks good - which engine? Hope the electrics are OK.

54k from new, everything works (for now.... )
Only a 3.6. Would have loved the V12 but sometimes practicalities rear their ugly head.

Looks good for its age. Not many about, future classic!

Getting there, should be MOTd tonight, got a wee bit paintwork to do on the sills, change the transmission and power steering fluid, new headlining, jobby done.
It's got a documented 54k on the clock, bodily and structurally very sound and once the headlining and new carpets are fitted it'll be minty interior wise too

Nice set of XKR wheels to set it off

They make it look pretty slick.

Some clear indicator lenses to ditch the orange would make it look better too.

You could black tint the ones in the bumper, and fit some clear ones to the wings.

It does look bloody nice, and it pretty decent condition.

nice car , looks good with the wheels

Clear lenses would be good, struggling to find any though, the repeaters are supposed to be early mini so possibly will get them.

i watched the complete clip..
i thought i could understand english verry good but i have no idea what was said in the whole 6 min clip.
i thought the scottish language was just english wit a litle twist but like i said i have no clue what they were talking about

the ""culture"" i reconise imediatly because it looks like almelo
thats a city 7km down the road from my hometown
those people would fit in nicely in almelo... correct me if im wrong PvdB

Its pretty posh round there.

Some proper nice minge on the scheme.

After Logan posted the link a while back I watched a load.

There's a whole different class of DSS round them parts.

There are scotts, then there is that full on Glasgow accent.

I was thinking about those guys living on the Scheme,

They don't stand a chance, where they live and grow up is just a big drink and drugs trap really. Gang knife warfare, as youths. And nothing to do. Fuck all jobs.

Big trap going rounnd in a circle.

it is verry sad if you think about it yes..
i once had a girlfriend from such an erea
she was constantly put to shame from her "surroundings/friends" for going to school and making something out of her life..
they constantly harrased her about it and asked if she thought that she was worth more than them.
they said she should stop with her study and get some kids like the rest of them ... she was 23 at the time

23? She'd be a granny here!!!!

Hahaha

OT: Cool car! Am I the only one here who likes the old wheels more?
