HA! Looks exactly like it.

That's going to take more than a kidney. I'll take both of them, and some spleen.
You know the drill, behind Walgreens. White Chevy Express.

If I brought that to my local Jaguar dealer for service, I'm pretty sure they wouldn't know what to do with it.

2,223 miles... sigh, I'm not even sure that's past break in miles.

Thanks for finally saying it.

I almost posted a full post about it but I ain't here to ruffle feathers. I enjoy his articles and eventually we will probably have RS2 avants on the same boat, but man am I sick of seeing that Doug has a Ferrari.

Yep. Don't want to be rude, but you are a contributor basically because you have a Ferrari.

NO! THAT'S MINE!!! HANDS OFF!

I remember being thoroughly disappointed by the worth of a kidney. £954 at the going rate.
Yes I've looked it up...

Yep, I saw it. It's reported that after making that film Doug put his car on Ebay.

I would LOVE to, but it's way too expensive — both to buy and to maintain. I have half a mind to drive up to Nashville in the 360 and pose as a serious buyer just so I can score a test drive, though!

I did this once, with a borrowed 996 C4 cab (which was only a few months old at the time). Popped into a localish Ferrari/Maserati dealer to merely have a look around, salesman approached. He suggested a 360 was a natural progression, but I'd already seen the dream- a 575 Maranello. I told him the 360 was "too common" for my liking, and the next day I was back for the scariest test drive of my life... Took me a week to stop the adrenaline shakes! Was verrrry proud of myself that day

"360 is too common" — reminds me of the best scene in Gone in 60 Seconds:

So, Kidney, or part-time work in Sainsbury's for three months...

While I love the XJ220, I feel like its one of those never meet your hero type of cars. It is an undeniably awesome car.

Hmmm, I'm not sure what would hurt more. The surgery or my pride...

So 1 McLaren F1 = ~33 XJ220s?
Hmm, one rare supercar, or ~10 grid oppo racing league with XJ220s used exclusively...
Ehh, never liked the F1 that much anyway. Saddle up boys, it's time for us to have some fun!

Is that a Testarossa in the garage?
![]() 05/06/2014 at 22:46 |

I guess its me, and I'm not hating because I generally like Jags, but this is one supercar I never had a boner for. Those huge front and rear overhangs, taillights from a Rover, an interior that wouldn't be out of place in a mid-90s ford, all of the design compromises that were made from the concept to the production car all just add up to meh for me. I would rather have the Transit Van that they stuffed the XJ220 into.

No you would not. You have never seen one in person. The car smells like a tank or a navy warship or something. The dash is to die for. This is one smooth, awesome car. Plus, an engine that has a glass cover over it.

Sure looks like it!
