I found 2 abandoned cars behind two abandoned houses.

Note: In Puerto Rico the rear plate stays with
the car forever. The yearly registration and ownership
details are located on a peel & stick sticker on the windshield. Neither car had ownership stickers.

I thought you Jag guys might get a kick out of the finds.
I think Elvis once lived here.

the Jag looks like a Series 2 XJ, whether it's a 6 or a 12 I can't see.

How did you get in the property without getting shot? :-))

That looks very similar to the 76 XJ6 I used to own when I was a young Lieutenant! But that looks like newer than 76?

based on the massive rear bumper I dare guess it's a 1979 Series 2, very close to the Series 3 since the Series 2 and 3 shared production lines starting in 1978½. (like Harry Potter's 16-3/4 Boarding Gate).
