1. Jaguar XJS V12 Manual Gearbox with Straight Pipes Exhaust, awesome noise!

This is my first video for Jimbo's Driveway. We take look at my 1983 classic Jaguar XJ-S V12, that's had some modifications, including a manual gearbox conversion, enhanced ECU, uprated brakes, GAZ coil-over suspension and a custom, stainless steel exhaust system, that makes the most insane noise!
In this video we will take a brief look over the car as a whole and learn a little about the history of the Jaguar XJ-S, how it followed the E-type and was either loved or loathed by the press at the time.
We will then look in a little more detail at what's been done to keep this car on the road over the past 20 years, including some of the recent updates, covering the gearbox, clutch, braking system, suspension restoration and performance enhancements.
After this we take the car out on the roads of Kent, near London, in England UK, to see how it drives, in particular the changes made by fitting the five-speed manual gearbox, from a 3.6 Jaguar XJ-S. We get to hear the awesome sound of the V12 at full chat, through the custom stainless steel exhausts, fitted to my vehicle.
I hope you enjoy the video and please feel free to leave comments and I will reply. Subscribe if you like what you see, as I will be uploading more videos about this car and other car related stuff, particularly focused on retro and modern classics.
