THE COVERSALE /// 'ERE'S SOMETHING MORE CEREBRAL FOR YOU ...

[uwe]

That's because you are a naïve European who assumes it was actually built with wood! (humming Westside Story melody) .... ra-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta Amerrrrica!!!!

They are obviously heavily doctored, but so is the owner of the realty. From the outside, I actually like the style (kitsch garden decorations excepted), but the inside is a house of horrors. It looks like a mix of Trump and Clockwork Orange, with debris from US baroque interior design thrown in.

It would be very befitting indeed.
But I still think they're just artist impressions. Which is even more fake (just like DCs live vocals)

[TBird1958]

Do I detect traces of self-irony? 



Also instructive for the other Dave (W): See, that is how a Dr. Feelgood audience did not look like! 

Fire, desire, much, touch, need, guranteed ... my, Herr Coverdale needs a Thesaurus, he's been doing the same rhymes for 40 years now.

Wot, no "luv'" with "tough" this time? 

And he doesn't live in California. He lives in friggin' Lake Tahoe and drives an SUV, that Jag couldn't move even a few yards in the winters they have there. 

 I don't mind saying that this is pretty much what I expect from a Whitesnake vid, it doesn't disappoint! Is dumb, yes! Is good dumb? Yes. Good dumb isn't as easy as it looks.

That house could use a lighting specialist though, don't you think, Mark?

Like no lighting at all, so you see less of the interior horrors! 

[Dave W]

A cozy weekend getaway, tastefully decorated.

 Sometimes no lighting is better than what gets put in many of the houses built here in the U.S.! But, I freely admit to being an elitist about such things   
I wonder if that Jag actually still runs?

As if it ever did! The XJSes were notorious.

My older son had an XJ for a while, I think it was a 12 cylinder model. It was a huge money pit. I sold it for him when he was stationed in Korea for a year. He was very happy to see it gone.

[uwe]

The 12 cylinder model was the pits, even worse than the six cylinder one.

[lowend1]

Mmmm.... As I recall, there was an aftermarket kit available for the XJS to swap in a small block Chevy. 
I'd rather keep the V12 and make the car a lawn ornament.

 I hear they look good on concrete blocks

Backinnaday, there were a number of E-type Jags converted to Chevy small blocks, too.  Now heresy, but back then, expediency.

[Rob]

I remember those conversions.
They started, ran and didn't leak stuff on the drive.

Yup. Then you use it to store all your empties - and losing Powerball tickets.
