Celebrating the 350th suggestion!
StarLight Garage is back!
So get used to it because I'm still live and kicking the darkness away!
To celebrate my 350th suggestion I struggled with a lot of things, which car and so on.
Anyways decided to make a comeback and suggest my wanted cars again, have still a lot of them in the pipeline.
Let's start with this beautiful Jaguar XJS, owned by a friend of my.
He won many prizes with this car and I have the honour to drive him for a few minutes, I wish I could take him on vacation for a few weeks.
The car was acquired as an ordinary Jaguar XJS, which in reality it's not ordinary at all if you have such car in his basic.
But it can always be better, so this car gets a huge modification package and as finishing touch a very special paint too.
After his modifications is still looks on the outside an ordinary car but inside is the car totally changed.
I mean the technical part of it and with the NITRO switch on your right, it's too easy to press now and then and give the car it's wild beast speed.
Some people just play with NITRO in games like in Grand Turismo ... but I did in real life and believe me that's an amazing experience.
The extraordinary sound and the big tyres (rear 335 and in front 235) finished the car in an amazing way.
Anyways I have a lot of good vibrations and memories with this car. So it would be great to drive my British friend Jaguar in Gran Turismo 6 or 7 and use the NITRO again.
