I'm thinking since everyone who has confirmed so far is from the North Side or Sunshine Coast that Milton will be the easiest meeting place. 7.30 meet for 7.45 departure should get us to Kooralbyn around 9 am.
If you are going to make your own way there the address is
U2, 13/31 Etruscan Rd. Kooralbyn,Qld. It is signposted from the township.(very small signs on posts but you will see them)
Milton Park car park. Nerida Lane,Milton. About 500 metres west of 4X brewery on Milton Road,opposite the old tennis centre.

Thank you to Murray,Amanda and Phil of Peninsula Jag Engine Centre for opening up their workshop for us to visit for a tour, meet and greet and morning tea.
Thank you Murray for talking to us as a group and telling your Jaguar story and how the engine centre came about.
I'm sure like myself, the whole group had an enjoyable morning with perfect weather for the drive into Kooralbyn. What a spot to set up a business.
We will be back again in the future if the doors are opened up to us. Quite a few members who really wanted to come along today couldn't make it due to other commitments.
As Prince Charles once said when messaging his apologies for not attending the Last Goons Show transmitted from BBC - "My knees have turned green with envy . . ."
What a privilege . . . and pride of place to a shiny rebuild of a Jaguar V12 engine. I can hear Grant Francis salivating from 500Km away!
Clarke, once more, your excellent pics are most appreciated for those from afar. So, put me down for next year if re-visiting. HUGE thanks.
Twas a great morning. Very nice drive out in the country side & the destination was brilliant.
To be hosted by people who are truly passionate about their craft, who are also prepared to share that passion with us mere mortals was very much appreciated. Great company from the forum members also. We should do it more often.
Shame everyone couldn't make it but still looks like a good turnout.

We were missing 2 x XJS's, a MKIV, XF, XJR, XKR and an XJ8 that all originally planned on attending. Would have made for a nice convoy on the way down.
But no matter how much you juggle around dates it never works out for everyone. Maybe these will join us next time.
Yes I was certainly keen to turn up for this one but I don't think everyone would have appreciated sharing the flu I have been trying to shed. Sorry to miss out but hopefully there will be a next time.
