I have got to search this to see if they have other colors. :wave: This car is very sexy. Thanks Boss Hoss for the complements. I like these pictures too. :)

Have you ever noticed how shiny and black the tires are on matchbox. Looks like I sprayed them but I didn't. :wave:

You're very welcome! :)

As usual, superb pictures, Daniel. I love them all! The '54 Jag XK120SE is a great model to have in a Matchbox collection, that's for sure.

It's probably that they just use a gloss black color on the plastic. Looks like someone wiped tire shine on it!

Sorry about that. :oops: I thought that you meant that you sprayed them with paint.

Great pix. I have been trying to get a top of the line Matchbox convertible with whitewalls.I already have the same blue coupe as in your pix.I love the early Jags! I just can't keep up with how the pronunciation keeps changing through the years.
Jag Waar Jag You Are Jag Wire Jeg You Are Jeh Wire
I just call them Jags or by the model names.

Support your local demo derby.

This is one of the stellar issues from Matchbox over the past 15 years.

The all exclusive 10 pack version from '09 is my favorite version.

:petkitty: I do like the light blue Jaguar - it is a nice looking car that was well done by Matchbox. They need to make more models like this one instead of all the junk stuff.

Beautiful pictures, and of course a beautiful car by Matchbox.

There were a few more colors, lilac, dark green, and a Lesney Edition in a very pale mint green color...I'm not sure if there were others.
My favorite is that black 10pk version.

Wow, Daniel, splendid photo! POTM, please! :thumbup:

I do really enjoy the stealthy-black Jaguar XK120SE with the red tri-spokes, but I am a fan of the pine green 2011 version with disc wheels and a tan interior.

Too bad that's one of the few versions, along with the Lesney Edition, that I don't have! :duh:

That black one is a sure winner. It looks great, and I'm glad that you were able to get one!

Sure beats the alternative...whatever that could be...at least that's what my Partner always says. ^_^
