Default Good morning all.

A long time Jag owner; first one in 1969, a few infidelities with Germans and a Bentley during Jaguar's direst days of Lucas electrics, but discovered that they were actually no better, and in many respects much worse. Retired car restorer, still playing with personal projects. Here to help, and doubtless to be helped; nobody knows everything. Currently driving 1946 Hillman Minx, powered by Jaguar (well, I will be when it's finished!), 2004 XJ6 3.0 se, 2013 XFR. Username was given to me by a girl about forty years ago to distinguish me from another mate, "Mk2phil".

Hello, Phil,
Many, if not most of us here are restorers of some sort, even if it's only the old Jag we're trying to keep on the road. Once it got into my blood I knew I was doomed!

It's good to have another Pro with us.

Welcome to the forums from ElinorB.

Welcome to the forum Etypephil,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

I can see you're already finding your way around so there's no need for any links from me.


Please remember to add vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. Go to the User CP button on the left of the top menu bar, then Settings & Options under Your Control Panel. Select Edit Signature and enter the details.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham

Not a forum requirement but it's easier to read vehicles in a list rather than a string:

Current:
2013 XFR 5 l
2004 XJ 3 l V6
1946 Hillman Minx.

Great to include engine sizes. I wish more members would do that.
