Do a google search at the VERY least. . . Jaguar XJS-V12's may seem cool an exotic, but they really aren't. Why else would you be able to get an "Almighty Vee-Twelve" for so cheap. . .
I almost bought a Jag XJS-12 back before I bought my '94 V6 Camaro. . . It was junk. Nice shape, but I found out that it was plagued with electrical issues, and it never ran right for more than a week at a time.Nick H.

Nick, that is what they would consider "nice shape" for that car.Originally posted by 93formulalt1 View Post
The cars always had electrical issues. My dad says the later ones (when they switched to a relay-driven system) have less problems, but they're still British hunks of shit.Gone but not forgotten: 1986 Chevrolet Camaro IROC-Z

Who does your "dad" work for?

My dad?
My dad's self employed now (for about 20 years) doing low-voltage wiring/installation, but he did car stereo/electronics for about 30 years, and thus worked on numerous Jags at Jag dealerships.
He knows his stuff. He knows my car inside and out (except the mechanical parts).Gone but not forgotten: 1986 Chevrolet Camaro IROC-Z

Did you give up on the V12 fantasy? I think you should look for a nice LT1 F-Body and work your magic on it. . .Nick H.

The DSM is faster then a stock LT-1 as it sits. I am not buying another F-body until I can afford the one I really want, I am not going to settle for one that isnt what I want.Originally posted by 93formulalt1 View PostComment

I give you credit, youre the only person ive ever met that is upgrading from a DSM(second worst reliability ever) to a V12 Jag(worst reliability ever)
They say the only way you could tell if an old jag had the original wiring harness was on how much it smoked (the harness itself hahaha)Comment
