Correct umbrella for X308?
A friend has offered to bring me a proper umbrella for my XJR from the UK.
Here are the choices:
Here is the one I was thinking of: ( I have heard they are not very good quality though, but they are green with a curved wooden handle, very Jaguar/British looking, I think, lol!
Classic Jaguar, Jaguar Umbrella 24" Green (/AC40010) - JustJagsUK.com
These are the ones I think they have at the dealer:
Large - which from the look of it does not have the Jaguar logo, won't really fit in the trunk mount:
Golf Umbrella - Large (UK only)
At the dealer, standard size with the logo:
Golf Umbrella (UK only)
What do you think I should get?

I had the green one, the Jaguar logos (3) were larger than on the small golf one, and more prominent. It was (surprisingly) quite often admired. Unfortunately one the admirers liked it enough to knick it when I put it down for a moment or two whilst in a shop. C'est la vie !!

My friend delivered this one to me yesterday :Golf Umbrella (UK only)
When I asked what I owed him he said, "Nothing, it was a pleasure getting you the correct umbrella for your Jaguar." He is British, BTW.

Here is what I have used...
Welsh Enterprises - New Jaguar Parts, Used Jaguar Parts and Accessories - XK120 - XK140 - XK150 - E-Type - MK - XJ6 - XJ8 - XJ - XK8 - XK - XJS - S-Type - X-Type - XF or Jaguar Parts - Direct JPLV Porsche Parts.com
...you simply pop the two fir trees (plastic trim clips) in the middle center of the trunk out and these fasten into the liner with either the same clip or a supplied clip.
BTW my 8 year old umbrella ripped, I need two new golf umbrellas, anyone know a North American source?
