Re: Stupid questions about motorised conveyances

Here is a daft question from me! Shamefully I haven't been using my old Jag very much at all - in fact the only time I have used it in the last year was taking it for an MOT. The petrol in the car is really old now - like 3 years old. Will it be a problem to drive the car with such old petrol? - I d...

Re: Squire's voitures

Approximately 550 miles covered in Allegro t'other day, down and up the Kingdom, a most successful raid. Keeping up with and exceeding modern traffic, a steady 60-70 and over 40 to the gallon. Not bad for a 46 year old Aggro eh? The only downside was the imbecilic clots on the radio none of whom I ...

The P38 is a handsome thing, it has aged beautifully well.

Re: EBay Finds

I remember it being offered for sale a couple of times before. Oddly, no mention of JLR factory build in those days. There are a few threads about it on xj40.com. In 2014: https://www.xj40.com/viewtopic.php?f=42&t=7527 In 2012: https://www.xj40.com/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=4616 IIRC it was also o...

Re: Jaguar Sovereign: rust and rehabilitation.

Sad that, I wonder if it was one of the launch cars Jaguar fielded at Dunkeld. There was at least one light metallic green car in that group.

I remember these as being well regarded at the time, but they seem to have been forgotten.

Re: Hopeless Heroes - Kiltox’ adventures in shite.

Bollocks to the misery guts dissing of this car. It’s genuinely really pleasing to see. It’s older than my Jag but looks so much more modern. I’d be proud to drive that around. I've always thought these are a clean, modern looking thing. Of course your Jag is from the last full year of its producti...

Re: Fleet Occurrences

This is where I'm at this lunchtime. Clockspring is off, replacement arrives tomorrow. I can't see anything amiss tbh, other than a bit of oose around the clockspring which I cleaned up. Apparently you need to code the new clockspring to the car but others say just make sure the features on the sta...
