You have got to love a car TV commercial featuring an XJ220 for sale!
They're at the auction. The XJ220 is the one I don't want, I'm pretty sure. I'd have to verify this, but I am pretty sure that's one of the ones that I really don't want.
You don't like the XJ220?
Yeah, I was right. I don't want one of them.

Not if it is what I think it is. If it's what I think it is, check how it was advertised and received by the people who paid good money, in advance even, for them.
It was supposed to be like 220 MPH, and shit like that. Well, it did nothing of the sort, and pretty much failed at doing anything well - certainly not for what they were paying for them.
They didn't make many. The ones they did make suck.
I'm pretty sure that's the XJ220... Note the '220' in the name.
If not, it's a pretty similar model. It was a definite low in the Jaguar name. It was not its first shitty car, nor its last. They kinda sucked for quite a while. From like 1978 to 1998 they kinda sucked compared to what a Jaguar should be.
