My XJ in magazine feature

[Steve F]

A little while ago Australias biggest 4WD mag contacted me to do a photo shoot, the mag came out on the newstand today It's especially satisfying to see it in there as most of the Aussie mags mainly feature Toyotas and Nissans.

Anyway here's the article.

Cheers

In the picture of the engine - what is that covering the intake/throttle body? I haven't looked under the hood of a whole lot of 2000 model year XJ's, but I've never seen whatever that is..... anyone?

It's to keep the intake noise down and was required here in Aus to get the Jeeps into the country.
