Thanks for that. The photos are truly comprehensive. I have saved a number for reference of details I had not seen before.

The further from showroom new, the greater the divergence on condition, and the more they need a closer scrutiny as to what has already been renewed, and what has not.

My XJ8-l had sat on the dealer's lot for about five months, considered a 'lemon'.

I took the opposite views when the CARFAX showed the brand-new motor it had been gifted under warranty around mid-life had but half the miles on it as the chassis had rolled.

All were near-as-dammit identical, factory new. Now they ain't. Hafta judge them one at a time.
