Hi all,

My name is Steve, I am the newly-appointed Parts Manager here at Beacham Jaguar in New Zealand.

Originally from Stoke-on-Trent, England & been on the spanners (mainly Mercedes Benz Heavy stuff) until I lost my arm in a motorbike crash a few years back.

Now here at Beachams, trying to source (some very obscure) parts for Jags, Rolls Royce, Bentley etc etc.

Fairly new to Jaguar so please go easy on the techie questions (if anyone has any??).

I will try to keep a thread going with pictures of project cars etc as time allows, and no doubt ask questions of my own.

Good to be on the forum.

Regards
Steve

Hi Steve, Welcome!

I've been meaning to pop in to your Auckland showroom to see what sort of things you get up to. Have you got any mechanics in Auckland?

Steve, Welcome to the Forum I have only just joined as well. You mention trying to source Jag Parts, I have a Database with Jag Parts suppliers, covers newer Jag's right back to XK120. (all strictly non-commercial) Your welcome to a copy, if it helps? Not sure that my Private Message facility is enabled yet, when it is guessing at a couple of weeks, just ask if you need it.

Roger.

 

Hi,

Yes, we have a mechanic and workshop @ the Penrose branch.

As for a copy of suppliers, that would be great. I have A LOT of suppliers in my database, but I am always looking for bits that are getting more and more difficult to track down. My email is steve@beacham-jaguar.co.nz

Regards
Steve

 

Steve, Have sent you PM about Parts, almost there.

Roger.
