And I happened upon a Jaguar XK documentation set... that they were asking $199 for.
Just wanted to be sure non of my brethren on Jaguar Forums were actually considering that purchase when you can acquire the complete set from here cheaper... and still in the original shrink wrap.

Cheers!

That's you in Canada purchased a Document Set from Elanders (document printers for JLR) and also another member in New Zealand. It was a lot easier for me as the factory is only 15 miles away:

Elanders Ltd
Merlin Way
New York Business Park
North Tyneside
NE27 0QG
United Kingdom

Worth emphasising these are OE documents. Elanders Ltd print them all for Jaguar.

Graham, want to exchange houses? This morning was -17 (plus windchill) and over the last week, 40 cms of snow. Not to mention its been 15 years since I have visited the factory.

Elanders is the PRINT factory - not the VEHICLE manufacturing facility. That's 200 miles away from me.

-17 ....... and I was feeling the cold at -2 this morning.

I went to school right next to the Jaguar plant in Whitley. Most of the time in the 70's the guys are on strike. Spent more time leaning over 55 gallon drums with burning wood in it than they ever did making cars. We used to take the "workers" some hot food in the winter until one called me comrade.

LOL.. as soon as I'm rid of the ball-and-chains (my children)...

Thanks for the head up. Heading to Toronto this week. Given the outlook, I think I'll take the train.
