Sad day for XJs

[Littlewhitexj]

I was just watching "to catch a predator" on NBC and one of the guys that showed up to the house drove an XJ.

[Beej]

With over 14 million made, I'm sure there's many a freak driving an XJ out there. Yours truly notwithstanding...

[OT]

Great show.
I watch everytime.
Not for the XJs, either.

[Jersey Jeeper]

Yep I just saw that too!!! What a scumbag that guy is. But I think the big rig will be more in peoples minds.. They should cut all those guys junk off!!!

[Littlewhitexj]

Its truly sad that most of those sickos have seen the show, and still show up.

[OT]

"Please don't ruin my life."
Sounds like me when I was 10.
They never want to admit, even to themselves, that they are responsible for getting into that situation. Always the one who catches them.

Is that the guy who drove by while the arrest was being made, but than came back after the girl-boy told him the nextdoor neighbor was getting arrested for drug abuse?

I liked the CSI epesode where the XJ suposidly got shoved into a train. Thing was barely damaged, and there was suposidly some kind of recorder in the ladys phone recording the engine. They played back said recording saying it sounded like a 4cyl in reverse floored spinning the tire.

[scoobyxj]

Oh, and that new show on SciFi "EURECA" uses a pre97 xj, and a 06 Grand as the law inforcement vehicles

[Blaine B.]

There was a show on TV called "The Crooked E" about Enron, and the main guy had a pre 97 XJ....

There were something like 2.8 million made, I think. 14 sounds way high.

[OT]

There were something like 2.8 million made

They use the metric system in Canada. Throws all of the numbers off. :)

[Beej]

You guys are right. I was wrong. Its actually 85 bajilli-illion...

[Evil88]

"THE GOONIES"....it had the coolest scene with an XJ ever. Im sure you all remember.

[OT]

I do.

What the heck was that movie with Tom Hanks when he was stranded on the island? When he got back home and saw his wife,she took him into the garage,there was a Black XJ looking sweet...

Ah! But did you notice the error in the movie?
It said that he got stranded in '94, but the XJ he was driving was actually a drk blue 97+ model.

[Jersey Jeeper]

No I didnt notice!!!Shame on me(Bad XJ Owner)...HAHAHAA!!!!!

[Blaine B.]

Yes that is true about the wrong year....I think it was also dark blue.

[OT]

Actually, it's a '99 or newer, as those wheels weren't available until '99.

[Blaine B.]

Don't forget, it was at the beginning of the movie, before he got stranded.....so it had to be a 1990 or earlier.

[OT]

She was driving it after he was found, later in the movie.
He also drove it at the end of the movie.
The movie was set in '95.

[OT]

Also, he was gone for four years, so when he returned in 1999, his XJ would have been new.:confused1

[Littlewhitexj]

Watching "to catch a predator" again, and another guy drove an XJ.
Damn.
