I've always wanted a Mk II Jag. @msg , apart from the electrics what did you think of it? The failings of Lucas electrics seems to have legendary status in this country, but I owned several cars with them and did not have problems. I did have problems, however, with AC Delco electrics on GM cars.
Oh, I was just kidding. I actually had a proper and thoughtful message to @BlueBirdMusic 's photo, but accidentally backed on my phone browser and dumped it. I actually like these older curvy cars. I'll post back better later, not that it'll be profound or anything, just some passing thoughts on that one.
You, just kidding? I'm shocked I tell you, shocked. -

"A doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical minority and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a t-u-r-d by the clean end."

Hey now...
Maybe guys like me with old ears can't hear the bad.
I loved a pr. of rare Cerwin-Vega 280 SE that I re-foamed the woofers in and then sold to make space. They had a felt front face to them. They sounded great to me!
Then a year or so later, an old friend gave me those VS120s and I re-foamed their woofers. Still have them and they sound great to me too.
I think I see VS120s.
2nd pair from the ends in that pic. above.
Check out the reviews online. They're pretty well received.

I’m not a skateboarder by any means, but this looks like what they call a Darwin ramp. It’s used by kids whose parents told them to go play on the freeway.The Gear...

Hey, what breed are these cats? Is it a Savannah or something like that? A vendor I used to work with sometimes was telling me once about a $30k cat his wife had, that was an African crossbreed or something? I can't remember, exactly, and it's entirely possible that I'm just making stuff up. You know, like usual.
