Unlikely, for two reasons:

1) Looked to be decked out in camper-van fashion.

2) If it was to be registered here, if it was French (and therefore LHD), it'd have to be converted.

My grandfather had one. With the V12. He really liked it too. Very comfortable and unique.
But then the engine blew and he found out it would cost twice the cars blue book value to replace.


So he did what every true American would do. Dropped a small block in it. images/smilies/thumbup.gif

I would love the idea of an XJS with one of the new supercharged V8s from the XKR.. classic Jaguar styling with the grunt of the modern, powerful V8.

Finally got a new phone with a camera on it so I can upload pictures again.
I actually saw a black SLR last night going down Granville st near 70th. Then I saw this one today!

Do they still have a Maybach in their showroom?

1024x768 is enough, and people said why it's better to resize than rely on the forums to do it. While the pics load, the window is still stretched out of proportion, and if there's a lot of them, they take a while to load.

^ Not only that - large pics cause the thread to lag when you scroll vertically.
