a front end shot from earlier this year 😀 tows the caravan beautifully

...and my pair.... I've had the Sportbrake for 6 years and the X-Type for 12 months. It still has under 27k on the clock, serviced every 12 months and an interior like new. It even had the previous owners leather driving gloves in the glove box along with a bag of Werthers 🙂 It now has new sills and is fully Lanoguarded underneath. Failed 2 MOTs in its life, once for headlight aim and once for sills in 2017. Currently working on the original wheels but got some refurbed X-Triple 5 on at the moment with Goodyear Vector 3 all seasons.

If you own a Jaguar and live in or around the Northeast of Scotland, why not come along to the Grampian Region JEC Annual Gathering at Drum Castle near Drumoak, just off the A93 North Deeside Road out of Aberdeen. It takes place on Sunday, the 28th of July 2024, with cars to be parked on the Castle's south lawn by 11:00. Where? Drum Castle near Drumoak on Royal Deeside in Aberdeenshire, the postcode for your sat nav is: AB31 5EY When? Sunday, July 28th, 2024. Jaguars will be parked on the castle lawn by 11:00, and members of the public will be on site from 12:00 to 16:00.

I enjoy looking in the members gallery and encourage other JOC members to post photos of their Jag, I thought a thread of Front Ends would be good to see, with a little detail if you wish. Here’s my XF which I purchased in October 2023.

Here's one of mine on the original plates :

You get weeks like that sometimes. Glad it all happened close to home for you and i should think the "wee dram" is on a "rinse and repeat cycle"!

You could say that for sure 😂 mind you given the job I’m glad it happened now and not when we’re away somewhere.

Sounds like a busy week

Great photo, I hope you’re enjoying your Jag 🐆 as much as I’m enjoying mine 👍🏻

Nice one Ian! This is my XK8. I've only had her for about 3 months. Endless grin!!

Hi Ian Yes here she is, now I've got original wheels taking up space in my bedroom. It makes getting up in the dark very tricky.
