Me too. Will you register your Jag or just go to look?

You're lucky only to have British cars and not British weather over there. My car hasn't stayed clean for more than a day since September.

Is it me, or is the pollen in Northern Virginia especially heinous this year?
Seems like everything I own is a shade of light pukey green.


The event looks interesting, close and worth checking out


It'll be a nice change of pace from the hot rod things I take my other car to.


Might see you there.

Yes, the pollen is bad. Even enough to cause me a slight allergy issue. I expect the cars will have a yellow/green patina in short order once they are put on display. Will affect us all the same, except for the yellow/green cars....

Graham, we have been lucky around here. Had days in Feb when it hit the 70s! So the cat was never caged for too long.

I haven't seen those kind of temperatures since I took mine down through France and Spain last September. It's been or here.

I plan to be there. I always look forward to this show, to kick off the show season. I don't have a Jaguar any more, so I'll be with the Lotus group. Please stop by and say hi!

I plan to attend and, if the weather is nice, to show our '94 XJ-S Convertible (champagne gold). If not, bring (maybe show?) the '17 F-Pace S (Brit racing green). Last weekend was great fun in Harrisburg at a lunch gathering of 13 F-Pace geeks.

Here's what little I have of the Jag section, plus some other cars of interest.
