Sweden/Norway Says Hello and i´m VIPíng it in my Jag
Hi there people.
Swedish guy from the westcost the island Tjörn to be more excact not far from the city Gothenburg. I now live an work just oustide Oslo the capitol of Norway.
I work as a Volvo master technician but my heart beats for the Jag´s
I currently own 2 Jag´s one XJR 01 somewhat VIP styled and a stock XJ6 96 that will undergo some treatment in the future. The look on that car will be somwhere betwen a VIP and a Lowrider.
Been loving the VIP style for a long time. Think it has gone a bit to mad in Japan with the sick camber. That´s not just good looking. Clean classy looking cars are my bag of tea.
I like em low with some camber but thats it. and after that i go by the say "Less is more"
Also saw a Stciky here on what car´s that are VIP and that no other car besides them can ever be VIP.
That sounds very strange to me my altime Favourite Japanese VIP car is a Century that is extremely VIP even stock if you ask me and that wasn´t even in the "LIST"
So i´m going to gently disagre with that and still think my car is kinda VIP.
Love the Lexus aswell.

Love the numberplates! Wait, is that a play on the word chaffing? as in, wheels rubbing? If so, brilliant, if not, theres a good excuse lol
Regarding the list of vip cars, of course the Century is vip; it was probably left off the list because nobody in the US has access to it. In Japan the list is sort of 'unwritten', nobody talks about it, yet at events and in clubs, everyone just abides by it. If someone pulls off the look with a non-platform car they get props etc, but they are definitely rare...
Anyway, thats not so important, what is important is what you got planned with the main Jag... Looks clean as, but is that a finished build?

Thansk for the nice welcome.
I will now try to answer som e of your questions.
Wheelspec on the black XJR is Front 9x20 et 15 245/35 tires Rear is 10x20 et 20 with 255/35
Wheelspec on the soon to be modified XJ6 is 8x18 standard offset China knockoff wire wheels with 235/40.
Wheelspec on the old XJ6 were 9x20 ET?? 245/35 and 10x20 et ?? whith 255/35.
So now to the plates. They´re a misspelled of the swedish word CHEFEN that means BOSS
The black Jag is somewhat finished couldnt go so extreme cus it´s my daily driver. i drive it for 20,000km every summer.
The green one is defenitly not a finished car. I drove it last winter (lots of snow and shit both in Norway and Sweden) and was planning to customize it this summer but plans changed because of a vacation in US that became 5 weeks instead of 3..... that costing me som money you can say. So it will be driven for this winter aswell and then we will se what happens to it. Have alot of parts for it like the wirewheels and so on..
Here are some more Pic´s for you guys
At a track event not much done to the car here just the lower mesh grille
Needs no further explainin
The woodpanels are being painted.... and has been for over a year now....
