I can’t believe I have never seen these before. Thank you Wayne for sending them to me. Here are three videos of different XJC Musters in Australia. I doubt there is anywhere else in the world that has so many XJC’s gather in one place. The main picture above is of Wayne’s beast of an XJ12C, and at the bottom is a video of it on the dyno…..enjoy…….

Took the Jaguar to its first Denver car show today. It was a small show in its first year hosted by the Kokopelli Beer Company.

Proceeds went to Lifeline Puppy Rescue and there were puppy’s there for adoption….which I think was the main reason my daughter was excited to go. Also, they had beer. Tried the Pancho Villa which was really tasty. Here are some pics from the event.

Yesterday I spent time with a very special pre-production XJ12C that was used for development. Continue reading “Reynolds Museum XJ12C”
Today we went to Jaguars on the Island in Victoria BC. This is billed as the largest Jaguar only gathering in North America. There seemed to be about 200 cars in the park today and XJ-S’s were the featured model. Here are some photos of the event. Continue reading “Jaguars on the Island”
I am writing this from the European Classic Car show in Calgary. This is the best show I have found in the area for European cars and is held in the great Stanley Park setting. Last count a few hours ago was 198 cars registered. Continue reading “European Car Show”
