Okay do you mean my XJ personified as a "lucky lady" or do you mean my wife's XJ? Lol

For mine (who is male, btw) I bought him all new centering ***** and DS U joints, hatch struts, and winter wipers. He sure is cranky when it's cold out.

Hers, well, uhhh I guess I have an extra oil filter for the stocking.

I dunno. mine goes in the garage every night and doesn't get flogged offroad so what more is there to ask for ? Xmas all year at my place as far as my xj is concerned. not sure on gender, but I think it's a he.

and the only lady I have to worry bout is only 6. Santa paid us a visit and she will not be disappointed. she deserves it, she's great.
