Hi all


Joining these forums in unhappy circumstances... with a dead S-type.

Looking however to possibly get a new Jag to replace it.

Hoping for some advice on both counts!

Welcome to this friendly Forum, Ben. Relieved to hear it is the S type that's dead not the owner.
If you want help with the S type ask here
https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/s...charged-v8-15/
You'll need to browse the sections for other models that interest you to check out the pitfalls.
There's a Regional section too

Good luck with your searches.

 

Hi Ben,

Welcome! I joined this great forum after purchasing a dead 98 XJ8. This forum helped me bring it back to life. I found the best collection of courteous, helpful, friendly, and.. I better quit before I quote the entire scout law. You will find the help you need in these forums.

I bought another dead 01 XJ8 and I brought it back to life as well with the help of these forums.

Good luck.

Welcome to the forum Ben,

Sorry to hear about the dead S-Type. Follow Steve's link to the S-Type section for help, advice and information.

As you're in the UK, there's a number of specialist Jaguar breakers who can supply whole engines or transmissions if you've had a serious disaster. Worth checking repair options first.

Enjoy the forum.

Yep, thanks all...

I will certainly now be looking at repair options (away from main dealers) before making the decision to scrap it.

Thanks for the advice, will let you know what happens!


Ben

 

Scrap it!!!!! Naughty words.

Welcome to the land of the 'undead', the guys will help you along, if you let them.

Good to see you.
