Is the Jaguar XJS still in the multi-story car park near Marks and Spencer?

We visited for the day about 3 years ago and it looked as if it was covered in about 10 years worth of dust and the UK tax disc was very out of date though I can't recall exactly how far past.

i have been to spain for rally catalunya or as the bar man in the official rally hotel said to me over large amounts of estrella," catalunya is not spain" and saw some of the local lads in escort cosworths, saw a dark blue one on rondells and a jewel violet one at a house near one of the rally stages,was a very nice house with a helicopter in the garden. theres a nice red one in gran caneria that shines like the sun too
