The Supercharged VDP is better than the reg. VDP however.

actually, if it's a 98+ then it has 370 bhp and 387 lb-ft of torque....and the VDP is available w/ a supercharger too.....:D

yeah 370hp... the VDP only has like 290 or somethin, right?

ya.....you might have seen it around....it's a 99 in British Racing Green

do you live in waterloo? i think i have seen it around

Kitchener....I live in Idlewood, boyeeee

i've never heard of idlewood, where's that near?

by stanley park mall.......it's a nice area like Upper Beechwood

cool... i love your VDP

look for a blue '00 BMW 328ci around town, that'll probably be me :D
I've seen another one around too, so it might not be me, but who knows!

if you have ICQ, give me a holla......my # is 13618132

Do you know Derrar... damn it, i forget his last name but he's from Iraq i think and he has a huge house near me too
everybody says his dad knows saddam hussein

he also has a younger brother named yassin or somethin like that, i don't know how to spell it.... but they have a green Mercedes E320

why would you think I'd know them?

he seems to be a well known person for some reason

well known among who?

lots of arabic people know their family... i just thought you might know them since the live near your cousin

This is nice. I'll get the tea, Gang$tarr go get biscuits, Fahouma get the Coffee please...:rolleyes: :D

we just got the "new" issue of Jaguar (winter 2002) and it has the new XJ series featured in it. But there are a few things I don't like:

1) I can't believe Jaguar waited this long to put technologies like HID lighting and the self-leveling air suspension that have been available in the Mercedes S-Class since the 2000 model year

2) What's with the two extra engines? 3.5-litre V8 and a 3-litre V6? There's already the N/A and supercharged versions of the 4.2-litre V8.

3) I don't think they should have raised the roofline; I love how low the height of our VDP is and how there is still an adequate amount of headroom. I can't stand tall cars. :o

Those are my only major complaints, but I'm happy that they were able to keep the essence of the XJ when they redesigned it. It is a very beautiful car. I can't wait until they hit the showroom floors :D

I once drove my friend's suprechared VDP. Those things are fast as anything and the interiors are amazing....they look like bentleys. I love these cars. Hope to own one some day.

how much horsepower on a '88 VDP, does it have the supercharger option, if so, can i have the specs with and without it?

I'm thinking of buying one. I'm in ottawa but the car's somewhere in the 905 area code.

No, the old one didn't come with a supercharger. Search the net for the specs.

i saw a VandenPlas today and it is SWEET! its got screens in the headrest's! that is so freakin cool! it looked like an 03' or 04'. how much would that cost?

New $80-90K.

An 03 $60-65K.

The XJR is a lot more fun, and also very classy.

my dads had 2 VDP's

our first one was rrrrrrraarrrrrreeeee......the color was really weird...it was called Rose Bronze, they discontinuted it the same year we bought our car (1995)
