Description
This is an older restoration in show condition, fitted with a set of Realm "D Type" alloy wheels, 5 speed T5 gearbox, one of the early better quality ones, no whine in 5th gear.
It has a bespoke stainless steel 6 branch full exhaust system that sounds great!
XJS front uprights are fitted with big 4 pot calipers and vented discs, the top wishbone inner mountings are lowered to give better camber control and a more neutral turn in.
The engine was "blue printed" and balanced with some mods to the cylinder head and ITG air filter to suit.
A Mangoletsi twin cable throttle linkage is fitted for more progressive accelerator control.
A Tudor Webasto sun roof is fitted, with sun visor.
This is the car for the discerning driver who finds a SWB E Type too small for comfort, but still wants a car that goes, stops and handles extremely well!
It is a car to keep, must be the best on the market, and the best value.
This is amazing to drive, very high geared in 5th, also very fast and refined to drive with no gearbox or diff noise.
No power steering but it is not heavy and handles very well!
Come and have a drive in her, you will be amazed!!
In the 20 or so years that I have known this cat it has always been garaged.
It could do with the leather feeding, it is a bit dry.
No sign of any welding been done.
