Another great book by Thorley

What can I say? This is simply another great book written by the Jaguar expert. It tells you everything that you want to know about this classic model.

The ideal book.

This book is yet another great book by author Nigel Thorley.Enthusiasts,owners and purists alike will appreciate the information in this book.I like the XJ micscellany and also a section that included modifications too.Dont see that in many books.Beautiful photos throughout.These photos do justice to this marque.I highly recommend this book to anyone.

As much about the owners as the cars

I won't repeat what the other reviewers rightly say about this book's completeness. But that's only half the enjoyment of reading it. What really fascinates me is its portrayal of car enthusiasts, especially felophiles (Jag lovers). Its near-compulsive detail, its sometimes quaintly Edwardian writing style, its concealed but still-evident passion about what most people perceive as a collection of metal -- all offer a fascinating, if unintended, insight into the "car nut." As such, it is good reading for the spouses of same, if only to help them understand what drives their mates to such illogical forms of transportation.

Excellent History of the XJ Series I,II,III Cars

The history of a Jaguar model is once again penned by the deft hands of Nigel Thorly. This book describes in detail all three series of the XJ cars, their racing history (yes, they have one), and how to select and restore a car.This book only covers Jaguar XJ6 and XJ12 cars from the early '70s through the late '80s. Many of the newer Jaguar XJ cars badged with the XJ6 are of the XJ-40 or revised variety. It is easy to spot a model covered by this book. Simply look for the dual-fuel tank fillers, one on each side of the trunk.The only disappointment in this book was the minimal coverage of the XJ6C and XJ12C models. These two-door coupes were produced in very small numbers, and few of them remain.

informative in depth coverage of these classic cats from cov

Nobody knows more about XJ Jaguars than Nigel Thorley. Avid Jaguarphiles will love the content and the delivery that Thorley gives to this classic marque.
