  1. Julie Many thanks. I have emailed the company asking for their recommendations on my required usage. Best Wishes , John
  2. Can anyone offer advise on a Fireproof/Heat Resistant double sided tape that can be used to fix back in place the edges of an engine compartment insulating material on the underside of my car bonnet. Many thanks and Regards, John
  3. Roisin What do you actually mean by a "dead engine". Is it that the engine will not start or is it that the engine has seized solid. A few details may help in receiving any advice or opinions. Best Wishes and Regards, John
  4. Marie You are very welcomed to the club. Best Wishes, John
  5. Julie Is someone attempting to have a laugh. £1400 ....I feel I would want two cars done for that money. Perhaps their finish is twice as good. ???????????????????????? Best Wishes, John
  6. Tony I am 72 years young and have similar thoughts to you. I was a keen and avid Japanese fan with the likes of Nissan 200 sx (S12, S13, S14, Primera eGT and Skylines including a R34 GTR I upgraded to 430 BHP. Now have my S-Type, which I absolutely adore, even though it does take some regular repairs, resets etc, to keep it running. It is a gorgeous car, of 16 years of age and has 65,000 mls from new. Needs battery (12 months old only) constantly being put on my CTEK charger/conditioner as with most S-Types and many other Jaguar models, they suffer badly from low battery charge due to the over zealous discharge when not in constant use. I would not be without the older style and leisure of an S-Type Jaguar these days. Best Wishes and Regards, John
  7. Julie I keep my car outside like you. It is washed regularly using a SnowFoam, then a Good Shampoo and then on a monthly basis I use a Hydrophobic water solution to spray the car, before finally drying and buffing . It keeps very well, dirt does not stick and washes away easily . Any rain or elements in the air form large bubbles and run off the car. I do also always use a pressure washer, nothing fancy, just a cheap Karcher model. Best Wishes, John
  8. Many thanks. Regards, John
  9. What you really need, even buying a new battery, is a CTEK charger/conditioner . The MS 7 and MS 10 models also act as a Supply, (to start the car), as well as a Recon setting. Jaguars being Jaguars (Bless Them) are very dependent on fully charged batteries otherwise all sorts of silly things happen. I use an MS 7.0 on my S-Type (which are very prone to battery discharge when they are not running). I put mine on the car at least once a week and as a minimum overnight, it keeps the battery in A1 charge and condition. Well worth the investment. Best Wishes and Regards, John
  10. Just be grateful (because it is a Jaguar) ????????? Love them dearly. Best Wishes, John
  11. Thank you. I understand that but I do actually want the badges I have ordered and paid for. Best Wishes and Regards, John
