I am writing to say thank you to the members of this forum who assisted me with guidance and support with my car. Some of you may remember a number of posts from me related to a 1994 XJS 6.0 that I had purchased in the UAE and that a lot of preventative maintenance work was done to including cooling system, ignition system, suspension bushings, brakes, performance SS exhaust, fuel pressure regulator, etc. etc. plus some minor cosmetic paintwork.
I ended up leaving UAE and am now based in KSA. The car was left behind with work continuing in my absence. The car was shipped to UK and I was reunited with it in the past week. I have driven it a few times with my wife and daughter before yesterday I took it for a thrash on my own. Without trying to incriminate myself I was really impressed with the performance from 50mph upwards. Effortless and bags of torque.
Since being back in the UK a new soft top has been fitted. There is still a interior refurb to undertake. Attached are two before and two after pics.
i had the soft top, insulation and headliner done by Aldridge Trimming. I would have made a mess of it so wanted it done professionally with supply and fit from the same supplier. I am very happy with the work.
Car looks great Pierre! Glad you were able to get it running well!
As a matter of interest, where did you purchase the soft top? Did you fit it yourself and did you install new cables at the time?
Cheers
Paul
I had a new top and headliner fitted last year just before lockdown. It was fitted by an experienced guy and took him from 9am to 6 pm. He new what he was doing but it still took him a full day. I don’t think I could have done it especially after watching him and I was very happy with the price and finished job.
Thank you
