Hi, I have just joined, don't know why its took so long as I have had a few Jags...
X type 2.0 V6 on LPG (in 2010)
X type 2.0 Diesel Sport (in 2012)
X type 2.2 Prestige (in 2015)
XF 3.0 twin turbo Sport (in 2017)
XE Landmark (I currently own)

And as from yesterday I put a deposit on a Jaguar 340 for me to rolling restore.
So I think this will be the money pit.. lol

As you can see from my user name I also have a 1953 Buick Special which I will be rebuilding in parallel to the 340 so I may be busy and very skint...

Look forward to hearing from you guys.
Spence

Welcome to the forums Spence,

That's a real Jaguar. Good luck with your rolling restoration. Is it the blue one from Barnard Castle?

it is in Cornwall at the moment, was found on Facebook marketplace but the advert was up and off so quick as the seller was getting stupid offers from people who just wanted to make some money where to me this is my perfect car. The MK2 just reminds me of my late father so I have always wanted one.
