Great video thanks! A neighbour had one of these (same colour too) when I was about 10 and it was the first 'nice' car I got to sit in. I had seen Ferraris and Rolls in magazines but never been inside them. I was blown away by the beautiful cream leather, real wood and electric seats!
A great trip and so well documented! You couldn't have done it in a more splendid cat too!
Did a similar journey covering the north of Scotland .over 20 years ago in my old XJ81 (XJ40 6 litre V12). At a best of 20mpg it cost a fortune in petrol but a great car to whisk away the miles. Car long gone but memories remain.
Good video
Great video! Makes me want to take my Kimgfisher Blue XJ40 there!
It"s a great trip to do 🙂. Hoping to include some footage of your amazing XJ40 in my NEC Classic Motor Show video 🙂. It was a pleasure meeting and chatting with you and the guys and admiring your great collection of XJ40s 👍.
Amazing views! Thx so much for taking us viewers with you on this beautiful trip
Thank you. I hope it inspires others to take a trip around the Highlands 🙂
Thanks for the Awesome video of your Lovely Jaguar XJ40 and the Beautiful Scenery of Scotland ❤.
I have really enjoyed this video. Wish i could drive my XJ40 up there in the north of Scotland, that would make it happy.
I live in the highlands and drove a Daimler XJ40 for years. Perfect car for sweeping roads, no plod to worry about or speed cameras to spoil the fun.
those drone shots are amazing by the way.
Great! Can’t wait to get my 1990 XJ on the road. Can you recommend a a good forum? Thanks.

Did the same in the S-Type but in reverse, but utilising the site to mailage ferry. Great trip
We meet a blue S-Type ne on the way around. Followed us for a bit then shot past 🙂. Think it was an R not disimilar to mine.
I absolutely love Jaguar xJ40.
Great video! Btw, what type of fog lights are you running? I removed the stock ones on my '90 since they looked like a goofy afterthought but yours look slick. ❤
Thanks - they are integrated into the bumper much like the later x300 cars. I have to admit, I have not noticed if this is the same on earlier cars.
@@toooldclassics Ah, I see. Must have been similar to the facelift xjs. Regardless they look great. The earlier ones most certainly do not.
That XJ40 is living its best life. Great work, beautiful scenery!
