25 years later, 968 is a classic and the XJS well... if one still runs... as for hesitating between a 968 and a 300ZX for the same price, the word that comes to mind is : "DOH !"
The 968 is horrible to look at. I'd rather have a no-frills, first series 924 than that abomination. That said: Typical Clarkson-review. If, for dinner, you offered him a choice between a steak and a turd, he'd choose the turd so long as it was a *British* turd.
+1SaG LOL. Have you actually _driven cars_ before? Go ahead, take that 924 shitbox, 40-horsepower rattly piece of trash that had a barely-functioning HVAC system from the factory, stamped fucking control arms and other associated VW trash--did I mention its like 40 horsepower?--horrible interior, looks like a rat took a shit at a VW plant in 1974 and they sized it up to make the junkobox that is the 924. YIKES.
I actually have driven a 924. It's a very nice car for what it is. Cannot be compared to a 968, very different price tag (924 < 944 < 944 S2 < 968) it has 125, which was not bad in 1976 and goes over 120mph It can be compared with the RX7 N/A of the 80s
3 speeds were tough and tested - less moving parts. Cars with low horsepower could have 4-5 speed autos but anything with V8+ amounts of torque would snap all the bits on a typical production build. FYI 4 speed autos had just started to come out in Beemers and a few more advanced V8/V12s. CAD/CAM and materials-engineering improved a great deal since then, hence why we even see 6-7 speed autos... if you've ever driven a 3speed V8, you'll enjoy the fact that first gear often took you to 120kph.....
Acuravigor47 I hate the fact that 90's era cars are now a thing of nostalgia or quaintness. But yeah, the 90's had great music and pretty nice cars all around.
Acuravigor47 ha, you said thumbs up but didn't give me one. I don't care, just sayin. Good choices in cars, though. Fun fact: The Starion was supposed to be "Stallion," but got misspelled in classic "Engrish" fashion by the Japanese. Don't know if that's true or not, but it makes sense. WTF is a "starion?" I had a thing for the Chrysler versions of those Mitsus...Daytona, Laser, Shelby Charger. FWD and pretty lame by modern standards, but not too shabby at all by 80s standards. Pretty sure the Starion was a RWD version of the Daytona. Or the Daytona was a FWD version of the Starion, more accurately.
Now that the 80's are over, "we can wave goodbye to .....the mobile phone". LOL Well, you can't get them all right and sometimes you are going to be very, very wrong.
I have a 1994 XJ12, and it is equipped with the 4L80-E, a TH-400 with overdrive. If I take it easy, I can get over 22 MPG on a long trip. Oh, yeah... ...I also have two six-cylinder, 150-HP nitrous systems on the vehicle. A 650-HP V-12 in a luxury sedan is a thing of beauty. I never grew up.
I just picked up a 1994 968 manual coupe, 56K original miles, 100% complete and completely original car (seems to even have the original tyres... okay, new battery), Guards Red over black/cashmere interior. My first water-cooled Porsche. Great driving car. I also have a Limited Edition 1974 914 2.0 LE Can Am and a 1988 911 3.2 G50 Carrera coupe.
It's funny because Porsche has accomplished this "cleaner air out than in" for many years. You can hear Clarkson quote this phrase again around 2012 or 2015(cant remember the exact year, but it was 2010ish)but, this time he admits it's true when driving a new 911 Turbo S.
Going for ok money now. Uncle died and had a non running xjrs 6.0 in red g plate. The one from the 1989 or 1990 motor show he used to say. Somebody paid 14k for it and took it on a trailer. Should have got it running been 20 plus.
The 928 S4 with manual trans was the best Porsche ever made IMHO,a truly original beautiful body, the sound of that V8 is as distinctive as any Ferrari, the perfect 50-50% weight ratio super wide track, responsive steering and Unlike the over-powered (and over rated( rear engined 911 you could drive this car to the limit right out of the lot. Engine in front, trans axle and transmission in the rear, perfect weight distribution. Mostly Aluminum body. Porsche lost money on every 928 they sold but it's still one of the best handling high performance cars ever made.
So out of the two he prefers a car which is almost 50% more expensive, has no space for anyone to sit in the back despite it's enormous size, uses the amount of fuel equivalent to an oil tanker, has a plethora of other problems. Yep makes perfect sense.
+Rudy Dousset What are you on about man ? That's a very nice jacket,still worn today.Even if it wasn't,he was near or over 30 y.o. then,when fashion doesn't count,what you like and look good in do. I was always that way : Fuck the "fashion" and XXS size,i will get as tall (and musckly) i want and wore whatever i want :D (and,obviously,looks good).
Good ol VHS.. gotta love that nice horizontal static band popping up on the screen every 3 seconds... those were the days, when technology was special!
You can fit alot in the back of a 968. I used to fold down the rear seats and put my mountain bike in there. Just had to remove the front wheel and toss it in separately.
I had a 968 with the sport suspension and the handling problems he describes just means the front end alignment wasn't set right. It was a fantastic car. I also owned a 968 Turbo RS that was truly amazing. Wish I still had it!
@@DankSi What glorious times those 90s where. When British cars weren’t in fact designed and manufactured by German, Indian or French companies like nowadays but nothing than 100% British thoroughbreds...
jeremy is a wordsmith, great review. i like the xjrs, fantastic looking car, even today. i would like to see the newest xkr-s with the 6.0 liter v12 of this car....supercharged and updated of course. that'd be awesome.
sjc I still enjoy the UK version of top gear to any other country's version. Even though there is no true 22nd season. Just stupid specials. But I read that there is a 22nd season in the works!
I've owned both, and for a short (sub 1 hour) drive down country roads the Porsche wins hands down. If I was going to spend hours driving then it would be the XJS every time. In fact I'm selling my 968 to buy another XJS as it's just not comfortable on long journeys, where the Jag is just sublime.
Thread summary so far to save time reading: - many comments on Jeremy’s prediction of the demise on mobile phones and raybans - many comments on the price of petrol - many comments on Jeremy’s jacket.
This Jaguar's styling holds up to the cars in 2023. Things that would improve it would be to find some way to get rid of the plastic bumpers and moldings.
A 968 turned up in the car park next to my office one day this week...and I recalled lusting after one back in the early 90s................was I ever really that young!!??...8-)
+NYJALB Mind you I also saw a 928 a few weeks back, and whilst wild horses ridden by naked Balinese dancing girls couldn't drag me into a Porsche these days, I have to say the 928 is still a groovy looking car!
Isn’t this the Porsche that he had when his dad died? He was cooking a Chicken for dinner, had a phone call about his Dad - drove it at a comfortable 150mph from London to Sheffield and he got to see his Dad before he passed away. The chicken was still warm when he got there
Having driven both, currently driving a 94 968 with supercharger, I still like the XJS (I had the V12 version) because it's a much smoother and quieter ride.
LOL, the "big boys" will boil the coolant within 250 yards of "spirited" driving, while the porka could go across continents and never miss a beat. Take now a 968 and a XJS for a drive. Drive test them back to back and see which one of them still feels like a car.
Porsche 968 and 944 in clean co dition keeps appreciating while the Jaguar can be had for a few hundred dollars, if there are any still running. And 300z? LOL. The 968 is a classic, the 300z is just another ghetto cruiser now with 22 inch chrome rims sticking out and a hanging bumper.
I love how he didn't forget to mention the ENORMOUS fuel prices. Beside :D I "love" Jeremy as a character and if he says a car is small,it's small for me too :D as (wikipedia says) he's 1.96 M tall and i'm 1.92 :D
"And speaking of windows, they're so slitty, you get the impression you're driving a postbox" oh if only 1992 Clarkson could've seen the 2018 Chevrolet Camaro...
I had a 968 this colour, marvellous car. Crying shame I sold it and got a 911 4S Cab! Even today you would look good getting out of a 968, whereas that XJS would make you park and walk last part when going to someone´s house....
I have a 84 944 and my friend has a 92 300z. 99% of my car is all original and has had very little issues over the years( AC compressor and timing belt changes of course plugs and wires...normal stuff) He on the other hand has had 99% replaced bc it has just broken in half or fell off. I love my 944. Its a expensive car to maintain still and still gets 30+mpg. I mean its 28 years old!
+alianisz Seriously ? 2003 X Type is sharp ? It isn't sferical,but still,very far from sharp.1960-70 "muscle" "cars" (to be read TITANICS on wheels) american are sharp,not this Jags. Beside,it's xjRs

How could've anyone in their right mind think that a technology as useful as a mobile phone would go away and not be improved on? I wonder if he went home to his landline that evening and said "Ah yes, no need for being on the go when you need to reach someone."

5:54 Jeremy Clarkson "I am biased" Didn't have to tell us that! I knew he'd choose the jag even before I clicked on the vid.
That's because he doesn't really fit into anything smaller, especially with that obscene Afro.
25 years later, 968 is a classic and the XJS well... if one still runs...
as for hesitating between a 968 and a 300ZX for the same price, the word that comes to mind is : "DOH !"
The 968 is horrible to look at. I'd rather have a no-frills, first series 924 than that abomination.
That said: Typical Clarkson-review. If, for dinner, you offered him a choice between a steak and a turd, he'd choose the turd so long as it was a *British* turd.
Exactly! I love the pride he shows for Britain. He will eat that turd and make you envy it.

A 3 speed? And a 6 litre v12!!! turning out 333 bhp? lol
all into a 3 speed gearbox, rofl
a modern 2 litere Diesel is Probably faster lol, and uses like 7x less fuel
That's why the rare manual gearbox is better lol

Missing the whole point of the Jaguar V12. It isn't designed to be a traffic light racer with a fast 0-60. It is about smoothness and torque.
I love 90's era cars.
Acuravigor47 I hate the fact that 90's era cars are now a thing of nostalgia or quaintness. But yeah, the 90's had great music and pretty nice cars all around.
Frank Burns Totally agree. Thumbs up. Class of "96" California. Previous cars, Mitsubishi Starion, Mitsubishi 3000GT, C4, Iroc Z. Thumbs up!

Who wouldn't want a sky blue cabrio XJS with white leather seats.
Keep looking at the XJS-C. There are a few out there in decent shape for reasonable money (Texas no rust).
£30 for 63 litres of petrol I wish.
I was thinking just the same.
Wait...you Brits measure economy in "MPG," yet buy your fuel by liters?
That's SO British!
With inflation, £30 back in 1992 works out around £63 today so it’s not vastly different sadly
@@bcubed72 to confuse things even more a UK gallon is bigger than a US one. Don’t think by much, but does make our mpg sound a little better.
