Jaguar XJ-S Guy Salmon Jubilee edition

 This tweet was brought to my attention. Not seen this before, don't like it either:

A 1987 Jaguar XJ-S Guy Salmon Jubilee edition, sells for £8,500 plus fees from no reserve.

What do you think of the modifications (bodywork is all metal from what I remember). Hot, or not? pic.twitter.com/vveiNKNd1z

 An older article I ran into

Steve Reeves - Hercules

 I catched this one on Facebook:

The mighty Hercules himself drove an XJS V12!!

Actor, Steve Reeves poses with pooch and his 1976

The Jaguar XJ-S is a V12 GT That Has Matured Spectacularly

 A lengthy but actually quite a good review:

The XJ-S had an unenviable task. Replace the E-Type while taking Jaguar into a whole new market segment, take on the best Mercedes-Benz had to offer, and succeed in spite of its British Leyland birth. In time, it did just that. Twin-Cam is proudly supported by Bidding Classics, where this XJ-S is to be auctioned: https://bit.ly/BiddingClassicsTwin-Cam
