Can anyone identify the car hiding behind the BSA 350? It's on the tip of my tongue and it's bugging me something chronic now!

[Entwood]

looks a bit like an XK120 Jag to me .... although the rear "window" line might be a tad too steep ...

nah found an image of the hardtop version .. XK120

[aaronjb]

Yep I think you're right - thanks for that.. I knew it looked awfully familiar, but the roofline had me fooled; I'm not sure I've ever seen a coupe XK120 before

[Vamps]

I think you might be right E............

[Entwood]

Now I'm not sure again .. rear bumper is completely different ...

Same here, so had to go off looking.......

XK140 perhaps - almost identica outline but the pictures I found of those have the wrap-around rear bumper

Looks it.... Must admit I missed the bumper in the first pic, was the cab that had me thinking something French, at first..............

Bumper overiders possibly for the American market - I'm sure there is something about a minimum height limit on the bumpers

HTF can you confuse a Jag with 'something French'? 

I knew it was a Jag ....... just not sure between XK120 or XK140

Late to the party but I recognised it as a jag

I didn't think classic Jags were that Ugly, thought it was a Citroen something or other...   It is OK to be wrong Andy, I am still a Man.......  :P

Calling a Jag .... 'Ugly' isn't going to redeem yourself!    Even I can't completely dismiss Citroen ...... I could find garage room for an ID19/DS19 http://m5.i.pbase.com/o6/17/378517/1/76403735.vXCigYhg.20070330_0376b.jpg
