  1. Hi Steve, No, unfortunately not - old version I'm afraid. I like the alloys on the old rear end phot :)
  2. Hi Richard, Welcome to the forum and Jag ownership, is this the first or a long line of many? Best regards, Dave
  3. Factory tour also sounds good :)
  4. Sounds like a possibility - Ringwood sounds good, I'm down that neck of the woods 12 -15 April??
  5. I thought as much, it just seemed funny when opened the thread :)
  6. I think with such a gorgeous car you are obliged to go an pose :) , it's mandatory!! Just a shame about the hand-brake (the only saving grace - you'll never have that problem again!) While not as striking as yours, my green S-Type turns heads - it likes the attention :D
  7. Hi Dan, Nice alloys there, really suit your X, you may have to consider a big brake conversion :) Best regards, Dave
  8. Clearly it's not a problem with your settings - seems to be sorted now :)
  9. I'm sorry to hear of your loss :(
  10. Hi Adam, In a similar vain to Geoff, we don't have sustained winter weather in this country to justify a second set. I do a lot of travel to Sweden and Finland and it's a whole different story. Hire cars are fitted as standard with winter & studded tyres October through to March. Many of the guys I work with have two sets of wheels for their car, winter tyres on a set of steel rims, these are bolted to the garage wall March onwards. The steel rims help stop damage to precious alloys in any sliding action and minimise the corrosion when grit is laid on the road. Like Geoff, I've managed without them since 86 having only one moment where a rapid snowfall (in April) caught me (and the road authorities) unawares and with just under 2mm of tread - grip was an issue. Best regards, Dave
  11. Hi Susan, Welcome to the club. What a good looking Jag how long has it been yours? It looks well loved. Best regards, Dave
  12. Hey Steve, It gets to something when you have to answer your own post :)
  13. Hi Steve, Had a little snow at the start of the year and last Saturday - makes the garden look presentable :)
  14. Hi and welcome to the forum. An additional option you have is to get the likes of the AA to inspect the car for you. As the car is more than 8 years old you'd have to opt for the more expensive full inspection - mine cost £280.00 but I think worth every penny especially for peace of mind. Good luck, Dave
  15. I've had my S-Type for almost a year now, I'm enjoying it as much now as i was then - should have bough the car sooner. It's the V8 Sport model, so can shift when the little S button is pressed - in truth it can shift without it but it's awesome with it. I enjoy the presence and the drive down to Bournemouth to collect my son :)
  16. Hi John, Welcome to the club and Jag ownership, like you I have an 04 S-Type, which still brings a smile to my face when taking a bit of a drive :) , what model is yours? I hope you're going to post a couple of pictures. As to a meet, there are a few members from the midlands area who have expressed an interest in getting together - I think it needs a quorum to make it happen obviously posting it as a thread on here. Best regards, Dave
  17. Hi Roy, welcome to the club and Jag ownership :) Best regards, Dave
  18. Thanks Dell, as Chris mentions above these are main dealers - I use them from time to time to get parts but that's about it.
  19. Hi Sandy, welcome to the forum and Jag ownership.
  20. Hi Michael, welcome to the club and Jag ownership
  21. Bought my first Jag last May and still loving it, brings a smile to my face every time I drive - don't mind the occasional detour. The car is a S-Type V8 Sport - love the power :D
  22. HI Steve, welcome to the club, your third S-Type, what models is it? Best regards, Dave
  23. HI Sandy, Welcome to the club, very envious with the XKR, may the happy motoring continue :D Dave
  24. Hi Andy, They're rims for a 1980-87 XJ6, not sure about a price though. Good luck, Dave
  25. Hi Derek, welcome to the club hope you enjoy the XF. Dave
