Ebays just the devils work lol

Always wanted one so had a little bid.... Check the period carfone lol. Was owned new by a Major in the army, always been to Jaguar for ALL work!.

 

looks a bit arthur daley,
my dad had 1 years ago, big barge,
actual did good sideways in the wet

 

Stunning!

 

Lost backend while bringing it home!

 

Looks great, is this as a toy or daily?

 

That's mint! Got a real soft spot for these!

 

I love old Jags! That looks a proper minter too.

 

lovely looking example and so uber cool

 

my old man bought one back in the day, same year as this but in the bronze colour, must have been a good 25 years ago I guess, i loved it!!

 

looks very clean mate.

 

Its very very clean, had a Ł5000 restoration few years back.

I use my taxi every day so its only really a Sunday car, wifes a little unsure lol

 

my old man used to have a white one and a daimler in white too he used to have a wedding car business, i used to love traveling in the back of it, i remember seeing concorde flying over us on the motorway whilst sitting in the back of the jag

 

Wow what a tidy car mate, looks hardly used. Would you mind telling us what your "little bid" was.

 

love old jags, looks mint aswel

 

Love that!

 

PM sent lol

 

Cheers Neil, got your PM. I will leave it up to you whether you want to tell the others what you got it for but that is one hell of a bargain, if you had of paid the full asking price you would have still got a lot of car for the money. Well done you must be really pleased with that .

 

Bloody hell thats clean, will be worth good money in years to come

 

Keeping it to myself mate, wifes saying its her or the car lol, so far its the car!!!

 

sub 1K?

 

Old school wallet hoover. Love it

 

Nice
There is a 3i thread lurking about on here that I posted in.Top and bottom was I sold my car piss cheap to my mate and he swapped it for one of these,86 4.2 manual cranberry with beige leather.I was gutted !.

 

If this was sub 2k then I'd think it was a bargain.. with that amount of history and in that condition, its gotta start to be an appreciating classic at some point soon?


Cheers,
Grant

 

thats a nice series 3 what engine ?

 

4.2 straight 6 mate

 

very nice ! now im getting all nostalgic i used to own nothing but jags and damliers had my first at 19

 

Father in law used to have series 3's about 15 years ago, always wanted one so thought id have one!

Ł104 fully comp with breakdown cover!

It really is a lovely car, cant believe how much history is with car aswell

 

she is a corker mate and the more history the better as it really does count with these cars and when u have a good one they drive so nice

 

Looks MINT!!guy I know does loads with these old girls,not the best on fuel I'd imagine?!!!

 

Got 26 doin 85mph bringing it home, 18 round town?

 

there good tbh average 18 around town about 25 on a run my first v12 was on su carbs and that would do 6 around town and about 10 on a run but that was when petrol was around 45p a litre and still used go through Ł200 a week in juice

 

The 2 4.2 S3's I had would struggle to get 16mpg. Maybe just about top 20 on a good run very occasionally. One of them was a like new minter, the other was a bit of a shed, but compared to modern big engines, these had a REAL thirst. I have no problem getting 28mpg out of a 6.0 Monaro.

Beautiful looking cars the Series 3 though, and appreciating now too. Still remember the day my old man bought his brand new one home. Silver with red leather that one.

 

Cool car, love it
But I wouldnt want to own it TBH!

 

Where's Terry then?

 

I cant see the pics due to work internet filter (arse) but I assume its a Jag like the one out of Lock Stock & 2 smoking barrells? The 1 Vinny Jones drives.

 

you mean Snatch....He had a P6 in lock stock!

 

Just seen the ebay ad, bargain barge!

 

Dont think its still on there mate

 

very nice

 

nice quality car,i can imagine it going over the gravel drive,quirte inside just the sound of the tires on the stones,very nice.........
