she can still kick a little ***!
With all my XJ's quirks, squeaks, rattles and other noises, she still runs like a scalded dog when I hit the gas. At idle, she sounds like and old diesel engine but when I step on the gas pedal, she roars to life, the engine rattles go away and she begs for more.

That is one thing about my XJ. Dented a bruised but runs like a champ.

No A/C during the summers, but like a fireplace inside during the winter

I'm just hitting 110k miles
