Julie, There appears to be a great deal of familiarity here. I to would love an old Jaguar. Had an XK120 and a Mk 2, when I was about 18 (that was 54 years ago). I would love another one of either but, I to, have nowhere to house such wonderful cars. I absolutely love my 2005 (Facelift) S-TYPE and would not want to part with it. It is in really good condition with only 64,000 mls but I do wonder if I can go on, keeping on, spending money to keep abreast of the attention it needs to stay as wonderful as it is. I also do not do a great mileage, have done 2500 miles since April 2021. Having said that, with what I read about the XF, I am not certain that is going to be any financial saving to me. Have had some very nice cars in my time, which fall into the older specification, including Nissan 200`s (S12,S13 and S14). Nissan Skyline R33 and R34 GTR`s. They were all modified and even then were easy to maintain and not over costly to keep together as prize specimens. No good day dreaming, but bless the good old days. Best Wishes and Regards, John

Do not be shy, tell it how it is. Cheers, John

Strange

IF I were to consider changing my S-Type for a later model should it be an XF or an XE. I seem to read a vast amount about the XF having many and on going electrical code problems. I would only entertain petrol models. I am surprised that the models have not been improved in reliability since the S-Type, which is a fabulous car to ride in and to drive, but does seem to be challenging with electrics and throwing regular fault codes. For info my S-Type has only done 64,000 mls from new, is really well maintained and the battery is regularly connected to my CTEK MXS 7.0 Your thoughts, advice, recommendations welcomed please. Best Wishes and Regards, John

Job done yesterday afternoon. Fortunately being careful and caused no damage. With bonnet up the Offside (Drivers) was relatively easy. The Nearside (Passenger) was to say the least, "very challenging". Used masking tape and Microfibre cloths to protect the surrounding area, just in case of any mishap. Best Wishes and Regards, John

Happy New Year and Best Wishes to everyone. John

Joe, Yes my car is a facelift and I am making certain that the washer jets are affixed to the replacement blades. I have looked and it does seem as if it is going to be a fiddly job fitting the replacements. 3-0 to Bosch now then. Best Wishes , John
