My given Name is Carmel J. Schembri Dingli, but I am known as (Charles J. Schembri) I was borne in WW2 1942 in Malta the worst time of the 20th Century. I am an Portrait Artist But made my living as a Photographer.
Came To Australia 1949 Lived in NSW all these years. I presently have my 3rd. Jaguar. This is the first Forum and I am pleased I have Joint as I find that the information is very helpful I have always repaired my own cars with the use of a workers Manuel also known as a Jack of all trades.

I am about to change the spark plugs in my 2.5 X type. My first Jaguar was 3.8 Auto Mark 2 1962, Second was 1998 XJ 4.L now X type 2.5 2003. My would have been XK140 only mum objected and I knew that won did not go against my late Mum.

Welcome Charles,

Long history with Jaguars there. You'll find plenty of advice and info on your current X-Type in the https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x-type-14/ section.

You might want to make your location a little less specific than full postal address on a public forum.

Let's see some photos of the X-Type.

Graham

Hi Charles,

Like you, I've run Jaguars for many years and that is the current one. Bit more room than in the XK140!

There's so much info on the forum, it can be difficult to find your way around at first.

If you go to User CP button on the left of the main black menu bar you'll get to the area to change your location details. It's User CP - Your Profile - Edit Your Details.

While you're in that area, add your Vehicle Info so others can see exactly what model and year you have when you post or reply.

Graham

Welcome to the forum Charles,

Good to have you with us.

If you haven't already done so you should add your car details to your signature to help others to help you.
