Hi Laurence, thank you for approving my membership. I happened to be mooching through the internet, typing ‘ XJS’ in and by chance came across this site. It certainly looks interesting and will give me plenty of reading to keep me going.

I have been ‘Jag’ nut since I was old enough to know what they were. My aunt used to have a series 1 xj6 in Heather. The reg was BUD50J. I used to love being in it. I myself had several of them when in my late teens, they could be had for peanuts.

I’ve had my current XJS convertible for about four years now. I also own a ‘79 pre he in white that has been converted to manual and has a 3:5:4 diff fitted. Neither of them are in show condition but they are good all round driver cars. To me, the best time is in summer when I can drive around in the ultimate pose mobile that jaguar made..
