Today I was shown around a friend's new car, of which he was justly proud, a VW Polo 6. So enthusiastic was he that he insisted I go for a ride with him to see how it performed. Some way down the A449, we came upon a Jaguar in the inside lane and he said with relish "Let's burn this thing off the road... " I said "It's a Jaguar" his reply "Those jags are overrated" I didn't bother to enquire as to the performance of his VW. In the event, nothing came of it as we hurtled past the Jaguar without any sign of it wishing to take part in a race. I noticed the jaguar had a label on the boot. It was XJR575. I can't help thinking that my young friend was just a tad optimistic ')

As above, been used once or twice. Worth £75 to anybody?

Hi David, Welcome to Jaguar Owners Club. When I have had intermittent faults like that its been a battery problem, Due to my not using the car regularly or just for very short journeys. Is Your car used every day? Battery may be low. Regards, Aubrey.

I don't think this is what you're looking for but i suspect the same people may be able to help if you contact them - for obvious reasons they're unlikely to put the keys on the general listings : https://parts.jaguarlandroverclassic.com/xr81247-locking-wheel-nut-tool.html Hope that gets you going in the right direction! Alternatively a Jag dealers/independent specialists may be able to remove your present set of locking nuts and you can either fit standard or a new set of locking nuts with a new key. Good luck!

Hi all, since buying my s-type about a month ago i did a check on the coolant and it is coloured Blue. Should i change it as i believe the spec says Orange. Many Thanks Graham

hi I would change it and flush it, some coolants react with alloys should be OAT red/orange colour its not expensive either, plenty of OAT coolants out there cheers Joe
