We were driving across Dartmoor during the press day which was covering the launch of the XJS convertible. We didn't know that. First sign was an XJS convertible coming the other way at journalist speed. Noted the bulged bonnet then it was gone. Thought nothing much of it. Then another came past at ultra high speed. That got me wondering. Then over the next few miles, about a dozen came past, all ragging it.
Never drove an XJS, but did drive a V12 saloon and it was truly amazing. I don't think the flying buttress is easy on the eye, and for me, the Eventer estate looks so much better.
