One of the best looking cars in my book. The owner should wash it sometime though :p

I have to say I like the shot but we disagree on the opinion on the looks of the car :)

The XJS looked good when it was new but it IMO quickly made Jags 'look' mid market not the luxury tourers they were always intended to be! The Ford influence equally did the same with the X-Type (made with way too many Mondeo parts ~ agh!)

It had by reputation the oddest handbrake action ~ you could actually drive off with it fully engaged even though the lever was in the down position???

Oh, nice job of panning and good control of the exposure :D


That was a great meal ~ you must have a good set of pans :p

The car is too centered, way too much wasted space on the foreground tree shadow. And speaking of the shadow...

I'll echo the other respondents' "EH" factor on the car's appeal, but agree that the panning & exposure seem spot-on.

Now, the old XKE Roadsters... :mrgreen:
