I do think several owners miss the point about S Type style. When the car was launched its retro reference points were perfectly articulated in the Shirley Bassey (Propellerheads) song which accompanied the TV advertisements - ‘History Repeating Itself’. I’m guessing that many owners bought their S Types because the design was so characteristic of a particular and interesting time in motoring history. My question is, what’s the point of trying to ... er ... ‘pimp’ a successful design? As part of my own enthusiasm for cars I visit many classic car rallies, veteran and vintage vehicle gatherings, and it’s clear to see that attention to ‘original’ detail is what distinguishes so many of the best examples. Somehow ‘Pimp my Jaguar’ seems completely incongruous.
