I think I got this covered.
Though I probably need to think about selling the Olds. Hope I don’t though.

I’ve been having weird feelings about the S Type.
Jaguar are my favourite manufacturer and given that the MK2 is one of my dream cars I was rather hostile towards the S Type.
However I was recently brought around to why the X Type gets an unfair rap. The biggest complaint about the X Type is that it was a rebadged AWD Mondeo. You know that car that was worshipped like a god in the early 2000s with the only real criticism being the lack of an AWD option. Plus the Queen dailys one so there’s that.
So with my new sudden appreciation of the X Type, I’ve decided to have a look over the S Type and you know what. I actually don’t mind the looks. I even think it looks pretty great when you’re bang side on. Plus as it turns out the S Type R is the cheapest way to get 400HP at the moment which would be great for future me at some point.
That said future me will probably opt for the XJ instead because damn these things look menacing in that sort of East End “Who are ya?” Kind of way which being a resident of East London is right up my street.
Also XJ220 because Yellow.

Kei cars, specifically the Autozam A-Z1 of Gran Tourismo fame. I want to blast around Boston in a miniature McLaren.

Il Mostro is a good answer. How could so much wrong add up to something so right? That era Zagato mastered that effect.

It’s actually a good thing I’m from Ohio where none of these were sold, because I would buy one in a heartbeat.

I’ll take the Olds if you decide to get rid of it and want it to stay in Oppo hands. I assume it’d be pretty easy to import it to the U.S. since they sold it here as well.

Mini McLaren? You want a Toyota Sera for that job.

The X-Type is too a real Jag! And the X-type wagon is the best Jaguar ever made.

I turned up the chance to buy a Sera years ago.

I imagine it wouldn’t be hard. It runs and drives and if I sell it, more than likely I’ll get it safetied as well. Im trying REALLY hard to justify keeping it though.

Those doors are incredible. I’d head straight to a drive through - reaching over the passenger seat, opening the gullwing door because the window is too small - it would be glorious.
