    I have owned this car for the last seven years. The car is currently undergoing a full re-build. Which is proving to be expensive but fun.

    The restoration was in fact completed three years ago and "George" as the XK is affectionatley known has just clockefd up 14,000 miles, including trips from the UK to St Petersburg and Porto in Portugal. We arrived home on Sunday after a 2,700 mile trip to Dubrovnik and Sarajevo - so we are seeing the world in XK style. Will be at XK60 at Goodwood too - maybe see you there too ?

    Spam prevention question (must be answered):
    The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

    What disease did Lucas succumb to?
