I fell in love with this car so much when it was featured, I was actually motivated to buy a 4.2 XKR in blue and have it as my daily driver. I drove it to the DriveTribe meet last year and had an epic day. However sadly whilst on my way home from the gym in November I aquaplaned at about 60 mph onto the grass verge on a B road about 2 miles from my house and went head on into a tree. Luckily nobody was injured besides my lovely Jaaagg. I hope whoever buys this car loves and enjoys it as much as I loved mine.

If I had six figures to spend, I'd buy a dozen or more Jag XK's and send them all off to the Jag race shop that did this conversion, and have them do it again to a few more cars. So glad that Hammond likes it. I firmly believe that this is the absolute best Jag XK in the whole world. We need many more people working hard to keep the classic manual transmission alive. Thanks.

@zachdebuhr6347 3 ай бұрын

A smaller sc pulley would ruin the engine. The eaton unit on these is very inefficient and adds a ton of heat at higher rpms, only way to really get more power out of the aj27s is to get a twin screw SC and swap it in
