I think that the XJ8L was the one that they should have had as the standard model and dropped the normal length version. it's hardly luxury for the rear seat passengers if they are above average height, with inadequate legroom and lower headroom, on a long trip. 

Would be a great option, but I'm rarely, if ever, a rear seat passenger😉

Neither am I, but my sons are of a similar size to me, hence I went fit the Superb. It were just me, I'd go with something like a XJ6 😉

The Pass of Glencoe with two out of Three Sisters on the left, November 2023. That's not sky replacement software, either. We were fortunate to have 3 concurrent days just like this: twas freezing cold out of the sun though!

Stunning 👌

 

The last time I drove through there (in my sadly missed Shark mapped Yeti) it was the early hours and I came across a family of Deer right by the road.

Glorious here this afternoon  - mustn't grumble given its the middle of winter 😁

Is that the famous Rufford Ford, as seen on many Youtube vids?

It is, although it's currently closed, possibly on a permanent basis.

You've had a day at Hardwick then?  If you ever get the chance get up on the roof...   The views are stunning.

Lots of detritus from recent flooding,  but glad to see the place appears to be large intact ................
