Great video!!!

My 07 XJR also jiggles on small stuff

He's v lucky on maint $ @ 220K mi, Probably orig owner (sold @ 175Kmi) did the shocks, etc

also V knowledgable owner. Bet he's an engineer (and like me, and therefore interested in the actual x350 design proper and related development history)

Kinda' makes a case for putting money into an old XJR (mine has 103K mi, and needs money like a college kid)

Not one of ours, but still an XJ, (sort of).

Interesting X308 swap.

There's a fellow on this forum currently shoehorning a huge old carbureted 460 ford V8 (coupled to an equally stone axe 3 speed TH400 trans) into an '04 X350 XJ8

The problem with One Take IMHO is you only get a couple minutes of shots of the actual car and then you have to watch the guy drive it. Need more footage of the car. Under the hood, driving, tour type stuff to make it more watchable. Right now One Take is better to listen to.
