I’m nearly 70* and have 2 GTs. Also a current Class 2 Aviation Medical. I feel all drivers should have regular fitness checks.

Nice colour on the Jag DFB. Had similar ZJ V8 Fairlane back in the 80s. Grey leather with 5 genuine Jaguar chrome spoke wheels. Including spare.
$408 each. Then.
I’ll find a pic.
I’m still overseas, North Luzon, but return few weeks early March.
I’m looking at Waxit specials. My Bowdens is...
I haven’t seen S650 in Australia yet.
The Ford Australia site has new S650 convertible at $98000 AUD driveaway ($64000 USD)
I would get $45000 AUD ($30000 USD) for my mint low kilometre 17 convertible.
So a $53000 ($35000 USD) changeover. I’m fortunate enough to be able to afford it - or I...
Probably nicest S650 I’ve seen, cos it looks best in black.
Black disguises the overlayed mascara plastics which are worst on DH. I reckon Eco is best looker.
There is nothing about S650 to tempt me out of either my 17 GT vert or 20 Hardtop.
Nothing screams “buy me or must have”.
I didn’t...
Sold cars for a while in the 70s - after graduating Teachers’ College.
Still reckon the Daimler V12 was best car ever driven. Well, I drove a customer V12.
Today a mint XJ 6 still warms my heart, especially Series 3 with pepper pot wheels. Recall we traded one with smaller 2.8 Litre engine. Base...
DFB if I read anymore after your Ranger polish thread, above, I’m going have to ask for a TAFE Certificate in auto detailing!
You should seek accreditation and start a detailing school
Thx for the write up. S650 still months away from Australia.
Then I look at pic of your car and I only fear if you’re not satisfied with that - you will never be 🙏đź¤
No regrets from Melbourne Australia.
Drive top down all year, heater and seats in winter. Only a few days when it’s too hot.
Got a 20 hardtop as well cos they look better. But vert is more fun.
Nothing beats open top country cruise on summer night, moon reflected on hood, warm wind in hair...
Thankyou DFB for another informative and well written post.
Some of what you say comes down to personal preferences, not doubting your intense interest and experience.
I keep a Bowdens microfibre wash mitt for the vert and my coupe is now the beneficiary of a previously unopened Meguairs wash...
