Jaguar based 5.3 V12 Buggy
Not sure whether this is the right place for this or if its allowed but worth a try.
Essentially, this was built up from an MoT failure Jag XJS - all running gear removed and installed into a custom built chassis.
Extremely fast, excellent fun to use, lots of hard work and time put into building this mean machine.
I have started to go through the process of getting this road legal, it has been inspected by VOSA and I have some documentation with regards to finishing the process. It has been assigned a new chassis number.
Runs & drives excellent, automatic gearbox, power steering, starts on the key, single seater. Also has a winch fitted.
Great fun for somebody who wants a toy. As mentioned above, this vehicle is not currently road legal, however I have started the process and it just needs finishing off. It should take very little to get it sorted. Lack of time/money and a loss of interest are contributing towards the sale.
The build is complete, its just the paperwork side to sort! Engine runs lovely and it drives very well!
No time-wasters/test pilots/tyre kickers - genuine inquiries only please. Viewing is highly recommended.
Cash on collection, will need to be trailered away.
This is an absolute beast of a machine and to quote my mate - "when you put your foot down it goes fucking blurry and you cant see anything" Its also very loud and sounds amazing when your foot is planted into the floor! Gets some looks too
Got it on eBay as well, but I thought I would try it here too. Looking for around about £2,500 o.v.n.o
Anybody serious can contact me on 07891 211401 and I will try my best to help with any queries.

LOL I agree it does look ... different, but for a usable tool/bit of fun it does the job. Must admit that chassis probably weighs the same as the Jag itself mind ...
Its an absolute flying machine though...
