Hi All,

Quite a few of you may already know - but it's new news to me.. Haynes now produce manuals for Jaguar cars upto 2010.

Jaguar MkI and II, 240 and 340 55-69 up to H
Jaguar X Type Petrol & Diesel 01-10 V to 60
Jaguar XJ12, XJS and Sovereign; Daimler Double Six 72-88 up to F
Jaguar XJ6 and Sovereign Oct 86-Sept 94 D to M
Jaguar XJ6, XJ and Sovereign; Daimler Sovereign 68-Oct 86 Up to D
Jaguar XJ6 88-94 USA
Jaguar XJ6 Restoration Manual (2nd Edition)

All at www.haynes.co.uk

 

Just as an aside - on the webpage they also list support and owner club links - I'm trying to get us added into that page as another resource for Jaguar owners - I'll update things if I get anywhere

 

Success! We will be listed alongside the Jaguar manuals, as a support group, at the Haynes website. The webmaster is on holiday currently but will add us to the Jaguar manuals page on the site upon his return.

 

On holiday! ......... ours doesn't even sleep.

It's hopefully an ideal spot to seen - as anyone visiting that page will be looking for help and support, and we'll be there! If I come across any other similar locations that would be good for us I'll see what I can swing :-)

 

I was under the impression that not only does he not sleep but Jim never has a day off :-)

 

I use Jim as an alarm clock. When he logs in during the night I know it's past my bedtime!

When GGG goes for dinner I know it's past my bedtime.

 

Just to update you - no sign of our link appearing at the Haynes manual site for Jaguars, so I have just dropped them a line to enquire if it will happen.. noting that JEC have almost every local office listed there as links so we are behind the main rush unfortunately :-(

 

Just heard back from Haynes - things are delayed as the webmaster is off until 22nd September - *but* they will see if they can get someone else in his dept to pop it up now, or at worst case we'll have to wait for the webmaster to return.. I have started pushing a little on this as there is a total of 14 links so far, nine of which are for JEC so we really need to get in there (so to speak) if we are to be visible...

 

Steve,

That's an AlphaNumeric listing so when JaguarForums is added will make no difference to the order.



We will always be after JEC entries in the list.

Graham

 

Grin.. I know.. but I just want us listed there sooner rather than later.. just me impatient as always lol

 

I got the X type Haynes mail order, as soon as it was published...

 

Five Speed you are the perfect example of why I want to get us listed at Haynes as soon as I can.. :-) Hopefully we will be added on shortly

 

Good news and bad news... Haynes have added us to the Jaguar section of their website but have listed us incorrectly - I have asked them to modify the listing, and will update you all once it is done :-)

 

It's sorted *and* our entry is the TOP one!! The entry that will be seen by the most visitors to them :-)
Please see: Haynes - Practical Manuals and Books

 

Steve,
Well done.
Whilst you're on a roll, you might try persuading Haynes to release an XK/XKR manual!

Graham

 

blah! Not too sure where to start on that one.. *but* I will stick it on the backburner to see if I can at least find out if they have any plans for it :-)
The secret to being at the top of the list at Haynes I believe is partially down to how well you get on with them when requesting it ;-) But real success with our entry being the top one rather than at the bottom as we feared :-)

 

I'll go ahead and show my .... desperation.... here and say How about a 3.8S manual? I know. Good luck with that. I think I just want more pages to flip through.

 

Superb Steve, nice one!
