1966 Mark 2 Jaguar




Today I have changed my main header photo to one of the finest cars ever made. Not only one of the finest, but MY finest. The unbelievable Mark 2 Jag.
Mine was (yes, unfortunately it had to be sold) a sherwood green 1966, 3.4 litre, straight six beauty, stuffed full of cream leather and walnut dash. Back in the late sixties this was the preferred vehicle of bank robbers and villains because of its amazing grunt and fantastic top speed of 120 mph.
This picture was taken just outside the Woburn estate, just prior to its sale.
What ever possessed me to let it go????

  1. Was it the devil? Or the fact that your prints were all over the steering wheel and the cops were closing in?
