I took young Bub for a short blast in this today. First time I booted it he grabbed onto the passenger handle & just went 'Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuccccccccccckkkkkkkk!!!' which made me chuckle.

Re: Supercharging the climate with a XJR V8
That thing is a bit mental. And that backroad I know well, how the fuck it stayed so composed for nearly 2 ton was unreal. I very rarely get nervous even though I'm a bad passenger but yes I was going for the brake pedal and just holding on. The seats are very supportive too. Seeing it does 50mpg less than my motor was funny though.

There was a major* electrical failure on this car yesterday....
Yup, I had to replace a reversing light bulb.

He couldn't as I consigned the bulb to the rubbish receptacle, without taking any photos of it at all.
