I would've use the headlights of the donor Jag, those looked a lot cooler. very classic and classy. Those original headlights were already worn and gave a bad look to that beautiful car. Usually those tiny detalis can really mess up a good sale. The front of a car can really make someone fell for it or just say nooo I better look for a better looking one. pLus I would've change a bit of the inside panels color just make it more interesting. BUt you'll nail it next time Ant !
Agree. Always like the headlights on that parts car better. It went for peanuts because nobody could see past the mileage. If Ant had got up there and showed his face a bit people would have realized, it was mechanically sound as he has a reputation for quality work.
I know its only a TV show - and therefore some drama is desired - but thats not a car that should have been sold via a no-reserve auction. Secondly the donor car would have been far more valuable sold as parts. The manual gearbox, clutch, pedal box etc would have made 2k+ so some could have converted another auto car to a more valuable manual.
The think the V8 was the same used in the Lincoln LS here in the US. They really are beautiful drop top cruiser. Oops, Thought it was the V8. Jumped the gun on that one.
thanks to the up-loader for giving us these episodes. can't wait for the next episodes. many thanks from cape town

Me too. Jag donor has a beautiful headlights.
Not goog on you not getting a good pice. Keeping on wrenching and building because pay-day has to happen. Thanks for sharing.
I thought Ant was releasing these.
He should've took his mum for a ride. And put a reserve on the car at auction for sure!
No mention of the cam chains?

ANT, TRADUZIR PARA O PORTUGUÊS. TANK YOU.
Thank you for uploading these! But you're definitely getting a copyright strike soon for these😂😂
I fully agree with you, and thats why the rest of the episodes should be uploaded so we can watch them before they are taken down
Don’t want loss, don’t sell at auction….simple really, and not rocket science. Make for good tv I suppose.
🤗❤️👍💯
Hard luck ant. You just have to move on buddy
Cmoon man you can't risk like that for putting it on auction. 🤦♂️
8 grand. What a bargain. 5 years time that will be 3 times that
Hard lesson . Sorry mate 😢
Plus fees 😅
Lost about 3k total
Who pays 10k for a 5year rotting 169k mileage facelift XJS 4.0???? Ant does. Manual of not that’s a bad deal. I guess things are different in the UK.
Cant builder build you a pit? 😂

I've done it. Many times. a lot of mechanics have done blowing into break pipes
Your paying much to much 6t for the cars
