The jaguar is solid as a rock. They are good to 200mph with stock suspension. It's the electrical that sucks ass.

As for the drivetrain, yes i did take a sledgehammer to the v12, cracked the block, punched a hole in the timing cover and tossed it into the local dump. I'm trading 200hp w/ 300#ft of torque for 475hp with 500#ft of torque. you do the math. that v12 is the crappiest worst designed engine i've ever seen. who runs head studs through fuckin water jackets anyway?

At least the limeys put a dana 44 rear pumpkin in it and a turbo 400.

You forgot to mention that you only paid $200 for it and then praise yourself for being such a great business man. But at least you didn't try to sell it on E-bay first with no bids.
