    • Absolutely sick car my guy! THE ONLY thing I would say would make it just a wee bit better would be suicide rear doors!....Oh and "suicide(?)" trunk/boot lid to match the hood/bonnet because... well because you can!

  • That is ABSOLUTELY fantastic! I’m a purist who did a glass out, every panel off restoration on my 1981 XJ12 in Rhodium Silver last year. Started stripping it on the 10th of February and had it all back together and completed by the end of last October. I’m 48 and have always had XJ’s since my 20’s, including a manual S3 6.0 TWR that I would never have sold, but for divorce. I understand and agree with everything you’ve done so well with your car. Nothing wrong with either the purist approach or a custom car that’s been put together so well such as yours. Fantastic job my friend.

Well done mate, great job. And then I heard the sound at the end of the video. Caught, hook, line and sinker. Love it

  • Ex Jaguar owner here, had 7 XJ's over a 25 year period. 4 XJ40's, 2 X300's and an X350. Fancied a change 2 years ago, so I'm in an Audi TT Mk1 now, and I absolutely love it, But Shaun's creation would definitely tempt me to sit behind the leaping Jaguar again. It's what Jaguar themselves should have continued doing, thoroughly modernising the hidden bits but keeping the classic iconic outer skin, instead of throwing away years of history.

  • Thankyou so much for doing this build. I have always loved Jags especially the XJ. My first ride in one in the 70's cemented that love straight away. Even when they were called old mans car and rotboxes etc. I didn't / don't care. I now own one, watching your video is inspiring. Original vs Modified, I like things that actually work, so if it has to be modified to function properly, reliably and to look cool then do it. I love the car and would love to see it properly one day. Cheers.

  • Absolutely great job.. I myself would have kept the V-12...lol.. My son and I have done a complete restomod on his 86 XJS.. a complete shaved body(no door handles,, lights, Even the gas cap finger lip).. custom black magic satin paint.. custom interior, including removing the ridiculous aux tank, and relocating the batt in the right trunk pocket.. Port and polished intake manifolds, custom made headers, full Mobeck MFI system,, all steel are chromed,, all suspension dropped and blasted and powder coated.. 18x9" rim's.. a complete original TWR body kit.. custom good scopes.. twin 16"electric fans... A complete wire tuck (rewired the entire ER so almost zero wires are shown). All nuts and bolts are S.S.. custom steering wheel... As you mentioned my son now knows everything about cars,, welding,, wiring, suspension,etc.. We must continue this tradition to keep kids working with their hands.. and these beautiful jags alive..

I’ve always wanted to do a similar build to this but with slightly smaller diameter and super wide black wire wheels,l to an earlier s2 car with the blade bumpers and smaller taillights. Great colour choice looks awesome mate 👍 always found it odd that the US has such a mod scene but we don’t. I’d love to see a murdered E-Type too.
