Smile New Guy in Houston Area - '92 XJS V12 Conv.

Well, in a moment of weakness and while advising one of my young engineers on how to deal with his Dad's car collection, I asked for pictures of the cars. Saw the Jag and liked it immediately. Well after asking him to bring it to the office and borrowing it for the night..... Convinced the wife to approve the AFE (Authorization for Expenditure!) and became the owner of the above mentioned car.
Fortunately for me, I knew what I was getting into when I bought and old car.... They have their own "personality" and may not be the car for you if you require dependability for every day use or have a weak pocket!

My intent is not to make a garage queen, but to spend time (And Money unfortunately!) on keeping the important things up to snuff (like engine transmission, brakes, etc)

Cosmetically the car is in great shape and needs only some minor details fixed inside.

Look forward to learning about these wonderful cars and enjoy it for a while.
