Jags are nice (you could be referring to an older XJ6 or a MKII), and 
incidentally if you're gonna be a jag, be an XK120, like Valmont 
drives in Cruel Intentions.

However jags really don't hold a candle to... and this would me my 
mechanimagus form (if I could only get the damn transformation 
perfected)... good old Astons. In particular the Aston Martin DB7 
Vantage. Rah.  Mid-mounted 5.9 litre V12. It makes me weak at the 
knees just thinking about it. Comes with a close ratio 6-speed 
gearbox. Also there's a 5 speed automatic version if you're lame 
enough to want an automatic Aston (what the hell's going on there?). 
Wheels like garden rollers, with a tiny layer of rubber on the 
outside of the alu-alloy. And the whole package can be mine for just 
over £100 grand. Donations would be appreciated.
