In the States, a used car that in very old, sometimes is referred to as a junker.

When I was in Texas we had a 1971 Plymouth Fury III, one of the last dinosaurs. Great massive engine where not much can go wrong an in the climate of west Texas cars can get as old as turtles without showing the tiniest speck of rust.

That's a lot of compensating, you must have something to hide.

It's an NG-TA, it's a kit car. Mine has a '63 MG engine and the body work is based around a '32 Aston Martin. :-D It is pure and unadulterated joy to drive.

I've driven a race-prepared one (a kit car actually, at Riverside Raceway before it was demolished in favor of condominums), and I'll tell you - most "men" couldn't handle that car at speed. I had difficulties, and I knew what to expect from it. It's rude and crude, and it will grab you by the sphincter and make you wonder if you have enough testosterone to do the job.

My first thought is - nice car! Second thought is - bit cheap isn't it? Third thought - where's the catch..?

It was a nice car in its day but I'd really think twice about buying something like that. The running costs would be severe. It will certainly never deliver the same performance and economy it had when it was new. The running costs mean it'll be a money-pit and at 21-years old, it's an age when lots of things go wrong and will cost lots of money to keep it going. Jaguar's reputation in 2011 is far better than it was back in 1990. Still, it's your money to enjoy... :)

And the right side is also the wrong side. Believe me. I never had a car with the driver's seat on the right side. :)

Ah yes, the company that put their engines in the wrong place then spent the next 60 years trying to engineer around the fault in order that their vehicles didn't kill any driver with sub-Stig reflexes? ;).

I wouldnt touch it. 20 year ol Jag? The reliability adn repair bills are going to be horrible.

Not a 50's MG, but I DO have a '64 MGB I pulled from the barn I parked her in 20 years ago. http://farm7.staticflickr.com/6102/6290712858_7669610cfc_z.jpg[^] There is a full set of pics showing the poor old girl here[^] I cannot wait to re-tune the Strombergs. :doh:
