I sometimes see, on a sunny day, a Series 3 E-Type (FHC).
It looks horrendous in comparison to the original. The glass & roof look like they've been borrowed from a greenhouse! (built for fat Americans!)
That said, we had a XKR for almost 4 years, that was rather nice!
My only complaints about it were;
- It was too luxurious
- Exhaust was too 'civilised'
- It was an automatic, but 'self-shifting' wasn't too bad (6-speed Tremec conversions are available, but cost around £8,000!!!!!)
BUT, all 3 down-sides are probably countered by the phrase "It's a Jaguar"
