Re: Squire's voitures
Approximately 550 miles covered in Allegro t'other day, down and up the Kingdom, a most successful raid. Keeping up with and exceeding modern traffic, a steady 60-70 and over 40 to the gallon. Not bad for a 46 year old Aggro eh? The only downside was the imbecilic clots on the radio none of whom I ...

Re: Range Rover
The P38 is a handsome thing, it has aged beautifully well.

Re: EBay Finds
I remember it being offered for sale a couple of times before. Oddly, no mention of JLR factory build in those days. There are a few threads about it on xj40.com. In 2014: https://www.xj40.com/viewtopic.php?f=42&t=7527 In 2012: https://www.xj40.com/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=4616 IIRC it was also o...

Re: Jaguar Sovereign: rust and rehabilitation.
Sad that, I wonder if it was one of the launch cars Jaguar fielded at Dunkeld. There was at least one light metallic green car in that group.

Re: Hopeless Heroes - Kiltox’ adventures in shite.
Bollocks to the misery guts dissing of this car. It’s genuinely really pleasing to see. It’s older than my Jag but looks so much more modern. I’d be proud to drive that around. I've always thought these are a clean, modern looking thing. Of course your Jag is from the last full year of its producti...

Re: Fleet Occurrences
This is where I'm at this lunchtime. Clockspring is off, replacement arrives tomorrow. I can't see anything amiss tbh, other than a bit of oose around the clockspring which I cleaned up. Apparently you need to code the new clockspring to the car but others say just make sure the features on the sta...

Re: Jaguar Sovereign: rust and rehabilitation.
The sill ends are quite vulnerable on the XJ40 frequently rusting through, but generally on the inside flank where it is invisible to casual inspection. The rust on my car was worse than average, particularly on the on the right hand side, possibly because the car had been fitted with mudflaps by my...
