run in with jag...

On the highway and see the blue lights comming up fast so i down shift into fourth gear and give a little pedal to keep up some when he passes. I ride up next to him and he floors it(Jag S-Type 4.2) i bring it down to third and mash the gas at about 75 i start to pull even with him. At 100 im about a car lengths and he shuts down. It was a nice little run even though short.

no mercedes deicded against the C55 because I live in MN so an S4 seemed to be more practical. Those 4.2's in the Jag have some juice. When my XJR was getting new brakes a few years ago I got one as a loaner and it felt pretty strong or atleast more than i expected.

Nice. S4's are sweet rides. S-Types are so ugly
