Because we all know your relationship with the truth and manipulation to make readers erroneously assume wrong conclusions.
I could post a picture of Buckingham Palace, doesnât mean I live there.
Look at the Jaguar saga. You lead everyone to believe you were driving it, then when you are asked for proof of its existence, you post an ancient magazine article of A Jaguar. Further enquiries from multiple posters reveal itâs been rotting away for years, because the âengineerâ lacks the basic abilities of a backyard handyman.
Your credibility was accepted until YOU eroded it.
Thatâs very similar to the Granada that went for ÂŁ33000 at Mathewsons auction recently
Where are they coming from and why dont they try and sell them even for spares if they are too far gone to save?
Scrap metal is quick, easy cash.
Yep no sentimentality or sense of posterity in a scrap yard sadly.
Itâs like that govt scrappage scheme on cars a few years ago, a lot of classics were lost, that could not be saved by (a ridiculous) law.
Maybe we werenât as affluent up here as you in the Sarf ! But Iâll tell you what we were CF we were economical and financially careful. It made sense for us to run diesel cars and the Fleet Engineers Granada was both economical and well liked plus the fleet spilt more derv on the floor than the Diesel engined cars used . Plus I didnât have any complaints from either my Operations Director or the Fleet engineer who had the use of a company car and unlimited fuel !
Spare us the lies the âproofâ went a lot further than just the âancient magazine articleâ.So you think I went to all the bother of putting a 6 litre motor, among numerous other modifications, into an XJ12 not to drive it.Your laughable cries of liar and impossible demands of proof of everything are just a personal vendetta.No one else here gets called a liar regarding their posts.Iâve showed you the proof the thing is sitting in my garage SORNed as solid now as the day I bought it.With the exception of corroded brake pipes and just not happy about using the available garbage quality, amateur hand fit, copper based replacements, on a 165 mph motor.
I was looking for the elephantâ

Me the âfleet engineerâ of my fleet dressing the new factory 6.0 litre crate engine which went into the XJ12.Pulleys, water pump, alternator, oil filter housing, induction kit.
This is the first of two Granada MK2 estates Bewick.Manual 2.8i GLS eventually replaced by an even rarer A reg 5 speed manual 2.8i Ghia X pack but canât find any photos of the second one.Both went for banger racing when I was done with them.
Iâd swapped over the better stronger 4 speed from the GLS before it went.
Assuming fixed axles how does that trailer make turns without scrubbing itâs wheels and tyres off it looks nuts but obviously works ?.
