Hi everyone, sad news to report, my beautiful car as pictured has been written off after a fuel tanker dropped its spare wheel onto the carriage way I was travelling on, I tried to avoid the wheel but collided with it hitting the off-side front wheel, the resulting impact was severe enough to push the A post back and after a thorough inspection by my insurance company the car was deemed a total loss, as you can imagine, very upsetting.
I now run a 2020 Land Rover discovery sport very nice car Jaguar engined but not an XJ. I’d like remain a member as I’ve got my eye open for another Jaguar.
Wishing everyone happy motoring and a happy year.Dave 63

Hi Tom, I'm guessing your car is petrol rather than diesel if so, I've had the same problems with previous cars and commercial vehicles. Petrol fume removes lubricant from the cap mechanism over time therefore I now regularly spray the cap mechanism with a liberal coat of WD 40 and I've had no further problems, this could be the same thing your vehicle is suffering from. give it a try. All the best for the coming year Dave

Do we know what platform jaguar are usingfor the F-pace? Is it Audi related or Porche or maybe I'm being a little pessimistic. It doesn't look like true jaguar

Evening Ron, Hope you're ok, the owners club shirt that I ordered with the Premium member fee paid on the 5th August, has arrived today, 21st August, however sadly its a "Ford tee-shirt" in the wrong size and colour. Can you tell who to e-mail to receive the correct garment. Disapointed Dave

Hi all, Does Anyone have an idea where I could lay my hands on a couple of Jaguar branded seat protector dust covers, the interior of the Lady Kate is Ivory, so I want to keep her clean during the winter months, I believe jaguar mechenics used to be issued with them when working on customers cars, I just wondered if they were available commercially. Thanks Dave
