CATCARGIN
Hi i'm from Dorset in the UK and have owned my s type for 3years.

Prior to that I drove BMWs for 30 years but became disenchanted when it seemed every other car on the road was a BMW !

Now I only see another 's' type once in a while which makes life more interesting.

Although 11 years old my Jag is low milage and was owned by a company which had it serviced yearly even though it might only have done 2/3000 miles.

Brakes have been the main problem but this is now sorted leaving only the cruise control playing up.

I trained as a motor mechanic in my youth with Mercedes Benz and Peugeot but that was when cars were machines not computers, so rarely work on them now cos even if you fix it there is bound to be a warning light to be put out by a dealer.(or perhaps i'm too lazy now )

Thanks for replies so far to my thread will take on board all advice
Cheers

 

Welcome!
