1975 is a little more than 20 years ago.

I think 'spitfire is alleging that a new Aston twenty years ago was more or less a 1975 XJS.

Correct, an Aston Martin DB7 used the basic body from a Jaguar XJS. The body was first used in 1976. Ancient.

The engine at least in the straight six version was a warmed over Jaguar AJ6 engine. This was however very good.
