Dear God! I would hope that brought the car to a stop! Probably made a hell of a racket as well
Anyone drive a new Jag XJ yet? They pretty much let me test-drive whatever I want when I drive up in my Series. They're always happy to see it still running and not imploding on itself.
The outside of the XJ is mediocre at best, but the interior is PHENOMENAL! Leather and wood everywhere, heated and cooled seats, voice command everything, dash is entirely digital.
