Default Another compliment yesterday with a twist

I was at my favorite filling station yesterday doing the tire pressure ritual (with my BBS wheels certain stations have better air nozzles than others) and a guy with a newish Mercedes E-class 2-door kept looking at my XKR. Finally he came over to say what a great looking car it was and how he hadn't seen one of those in a long time. I thought that was odd as there are a fair amount of XK8/XKR in the area and even more of the newer generation XK. He went on to say how he was impressed that I managed to keep it in such good shape. I thanked him and said I try to take good care of the car and waved as I drove out.

It then dawned on me that he may have thought he was looking at an E-type.

Soak it up Doug and give yourself a pat on the back for keeping the Jag in such nice condition.

You'll need to remember this the next time you come inot contact with one of the haters out there.
