Default Re: Barra Swapped Jagaur XJC

Stunning car and superb work under the bonnet.

Grandad had a Series 1 or 2 XJ6 in bright yellow/black roof, and a series 3 Daimler Sovereign in metallic blue - both beautiful cars. Always had a soft spot for them, childhood memories.

The Barra is a spiritual equal of the old XK6. Did you know they prototyped the XK6 with it's overhead cams during WW2 in overtime night watch shifts at the factory?

XK6 and Barra may now be gone, but Jaguar has got a new inline 6 in the Ingenium motor - want one. Strangely, I don't think it's fitted to the XE or XF, but it is an option in the P400 F-Pace. Get one before they are all gone in 2025!

Here's a great review:
