Default white XJS: only lovers left alive

White XJS featured prominently in this film. Yes, it's lumped, but in spectacular fashion The owner is a vampire of indeterminate age, who has a knack for engineering / alternate energy sources. He's got some type of Tesla / flux capacitor under the hood. Makes some nice noises.

This car is definitely filmed on the road, not green screen. And yes, several of the warning lights are illuminated. LOL - no wonder our cars have a bad rap.

Yeah, I know this thread is worthless without pics. I need to learn how to post. I can take screenshots and provide to anyone willing to do so.

Cheers!

I enjoyed that film very much. Did not know what to expect given it's by Jim Jarmusch. Tom Hiddleston (The villain in Jaguar's The Art of Villainy F-Type advert) played well, as did Tilda Swinton, Anton Yelchin, and many others.

There's a movie-car database: IMCDb.org: "Only Lovers Left Alive, 2013": cars, bikes, trucks and other vehicles

How to Post Pics.

(1) Open a Free Account with Photobucket.

(2) Click Create Album

(3) Click where it says drag photos to upload here

(4) This opens your 'My Pictures File' on your Computer

(5) Click on the Pic you want to upload to Photobucket

(6) Photobucket then loads it into your chosen Album (you can have more than one)

(7) To Post a Pic on the Forum: Copy the link in the Album where it says IMG

(8) On your Post on the Forum that you want to add Pics to: Click on the 'Thingy' that looks like a Globe with a chain link underneath, which is underneath the smiley face.

(9) It will open a box which says http:// (hit the delete so that box goes empty)

(10) Paste in the IMG link which is associated with the Pic you want to upload, then Click OK and the Pic will upload to your Forum Post.

The Library is simply a Collection of your different albums

Its a hell of a lot easier to do than it sounds!
