If you go that direction, you then need to stop by wallyworld and get black sport coat and black slacks- so that you look like a driver of that car.

Then you need to talk some fool into sitting in the back, representing the actual owner of the car.

With the length of those rear doors, that car has a chauffeur for sure.

FYI this car is listed as an XJ8 but it is really an XJ6. 95 and 96 had the old 4.0 inline 6, 97 they moved to the 4.0 V8. You can tell by the turn signals and side marker lights. On the XJ6 the are rectangular, on the XJ8 they are more rounded.

There does happen to be a blown motor, ground control suspended, 5 speed swapped SVX with a good motor sitting next to it that you could probably get for around challenge budget in town. I'd bet I would even loan you my engine lift that the good motor is hanging off of.

It's not in Gainsville, but he can pick up Catywampus and drive her down to the Challenge and back up, as long as he doesn't break her. Not an aristocrat by any means, though.

4.2L A6 for you. I bet a fluid and filter change would help out the slipping.

They didn't make BMW's in 1894. You might be able to find a Benz from that era, though.

Edit: Oh look, I found one:

I have 15 inch race tires mounted to 4 x 100 wheels, as well as a set mounted to universal 5x100 / 5x114.3 15 inch wheels. If you buy something before 3:00 tomorrow that those will fit let me know and I will throw them in one of the cars.

For burks sake. WTF $1,600 really?

95 jaguar xj8 in good condition,runs perfect.cold Ac , nice leather interior Asking $1600 obo

That has to have rust belt flip potential to it. I mean really, $1,600 for a running driving, apparently in reasonable condition XJ that hasn't got the super leggera rust treatment.

I need to expand my day dream craigslust searching beyond orange countr
