A "one of a kind" Jaguar with costom paint and interior, along with
special wheels and tires.

I can see why it's one of a kind, maybe with a new interior, wheels and
tires...

The interior fabric is hideous! All the gold plating and wire wheels
are gauche!
Yuck!

I spent eight years within walking distance of where this was built.
To show the feelings about that model:cars
Not once did I see one of these (rectangular headlamps) on the roads
of Coventry.

Shitty car with a worse reputation.

(My sister, in San Diego, had one and loved it although it nickeled
and dimed (x100) her to death.
She cried when it got t-boned three years ago.

Within weeks she felt overjoyed to be done with it.)

Well I guess that this shows that the car, as built, really could be
worse!

Hmm, I like that car, except for the interior, paint, wheels and tires...

besides any other considerations of owning one of those cars new--and the
V12 was prone to disasterous overheating of the C/K July-Louisiana parade
car variety, along the the 99,999 other problems--it has to be one of the
few cars ever built that aero headlights were fuglier than old roundies, and
a chunky "I guzzle gas" body to boot. Doing this "custom" is the final
indignity to the marque.

Didn't notice this before, the seller has a rating of -1!

I see the first try didn't meet reserve so it is available again.  I really
like the "1 of a kind" sticker.  My first thoughts of the square headlight
look was that it looked too much like the Buick Roadmasters of that time
frame.
