GranSport and XJR

A few photos of my GranSport with my friend's new purchase: a Jaguar XJR.

Nice Jag! I really like this model a lot more than the new one. When you sit in this model it gives you a real nice cosy feeling. The new one is just too big.

The newer XJ is not that much larger than the old XJ. I really like them both.

It is especially a lot higher (14,5 cm) and the wheelbase is a lot longer (15,4 cm).
In my opinion you wear the old one like a glove, the new one is much roomier and I don't like that

I have driven hundreds of miles with the old XJ, but I never even sat in the new Jag. Let alone driven one. Never realized it was so much bigger. I only knew the new XJ weighs a lot less thanks to the aluminium body.
