If I had 60 grand I think I'd have the new Audi RS4 and pocket 10k or a Type 25 and pocket 25k. Actually, you can buy one of the original XJRs now for not a lot of money! Jags of that era don't seem to hold their value that well compared to the opposition.Great for 2nd hand buyers though.

i once pulled up at some lights along side an xj-R in my golf gti tdi 150 which was a pretty quick car,i recognised the R badge and knew what it meant but i thought what the hell ,sometimes its interesting to see just how much faster something is.
Well i swear he was doing 60 before i went for 2nd gear ,it was the fastest car i have ever seen go from the lights ,absolutely mental fast.

God knows how you've managed to perceive that as a scooby victory

3.2 boxster S will do 170mph will it not?
It was also boosted to 280bhp for newer models so i would hardly consider it a slow car.
Result seems about right if it was the 3.2. I'd expect it to be different if the 2.7 model though
