i got an 85' xj12 vanden plas one of the few vanden plas jaguars made with a V12, i had a custom twin turbocharger made which cost me alot, but from the roughly 350hp it made..it makes about 600hp now..it was also one of the rare vanden plas jags to not have the 3 speed auto boggswarner tranny...instead it has the racing jag 6 speed..goodtimes

This is one bute of a JAG. An XJ12 or 6 Coupe. Could be 1975, '76, '77 were the only years these were made. I had a 1976, Sable/blk hides, with aftermarket electric sunroof.
She flew at an honest 150 mph at 6750 redline rpm. Everything was fine! Rt 5 between Chicago and DeKalb, Illinois. I even let go of the wheel for a bit. Smooth as glass, very quiet.
Every one of these two doors had a covered roof 'cause the roof die left a wrinkle in the pressed sheet metal. It was much cheaper to cover-up the 'opps' then to re-configure' the die for such a short press run. About 3000 of these were made so they could be raced. [needed 750 to be raced proper]. Big comfort and Joy.
