Couple of pictures taken by a friend of mine at a meetup.
Recently had it remapped to 177bhp and 313ft/lb's torque. She pulls really well. MPG has increased to about 65mpg on a good run too...according to the trip computer anyway.
good skills son
I am looking at a log burner next and the Seat is high up on the list
313lb/ft is awesome!

Oo that looks very nice, tell me it isn't a diesel though
It is.
But he had no choice really because where he works a new company car scheme is going active in a few months where you must have a diesel unless your car weighs less than a certain amount and i know that his old, well i say old he has only had a few years was the 3.0L petrol. But this new model is a 2.7L Diesel and has a better specification.
Lovely motor though as you can see in the pic the first drive didn't go well, with bird crap being smeared on the top drivers side of the windscreen and roof.
I am really impressed with Jaguars though, can't believe that I haven't seen many on here, then again I think there is something like a age limit for the test drive so you have to be 28.
Better pics will come this weekend for those a bit more interested.
Arhh the 2.7 is very good actually, they say it's extremely refined for a diesel.
Well I drive an XJ8, and I'm 25, I had no trouble at all getting a test drive from Stratstone. So that's hardly the case, their is a bit of a mental block with a lot of people though, they consider them to be old man's cars, so choose not to drive them really.

Bar Blackhawks Mini, (which rocks, let me know if you ever want to sell it) this page has turned into the ugly car contest, hehe

Yup, Not a fan of Cabrio's (any cabrio's, girls cars)
S2000 is ok if you like revving the nuts off ya car. Nicely engineered just not my cup o tea.

Well he could choose from a list of company cars and pay monthly or take a car allowance and and buy what ever he wants. So he has been doing that for a few years.
I would take more photos now but its pouring down with rain here.
