Hi Alan @cabriolet
There is at least one other member who has one of these Cabriolets – Scott Foxall @scottfoxall
I believe there wea a batch destined for US that never go there, and Jaguar themsevles did the LHD to RHD conversion.
Hopefully Scott will join in this conversation and tell you more.

Laurence JonesKeymasterHi Ludger @herrschmitz
I was wondering if you’ve had a chance to take a look around our Club website yet ?

Laurence JonesKeymasterHello David @robertdavidwardale
I’ve made a start on refurbishing the paintwork on my wheels but haven’t make great progress yet. I’ve had a couple of sessions with NitroMors and that’s taken the majority of the paint off, but there is still loads left in the difficult places. I was thinking of using a little wire brush attachment on an electric drill but that’s as far as I’ve got.
If you’re having problems loading photos up, please just email them to me and I’ll add them to your Photo Album for you (and post them into a Topic/Reply if you would like them). membership@xjs-soft-tops.com I am in discussions with the developer of the Photo Album software I use on the site, to create a single “Add Photo” button that facilitates the upload into the Photo Album and the placement into the Discussion Topic/Reply. Progress is unfortunately slow.

Laurence JonesKeymasterHi Stig @stigmoltu-jacobsen
I have previously been told, that the gauge I the Convertibles and Cabriolets is still calibrated as if it were in the Coupe’s fuel tank – the Convertible and Cabriolet tanks are smaller though. The net effect is that when our smaller tanks are physically full (almost overflowing) the gauge shows about 3/4 full.
I always carry 1 gallon can of fuel in the 3.6 and 4 litre cars and two 1 gallon cans when using the V12

Laurence JonesKeymasterI’ve written out to all Club members who have late model Cabriolets, and of those that replied none have ABS fitted.
Laurence
Laurence JonesKeymasterHello Douglas @douglashall
I know of a company in Scotland who do this as a replacement service – that you install yourself on the car – BAS International
Hopefully a member closer to you can recommend somewhere.

Laurence JonesKeymasterHi Claudiu @kadudu

LaurenceLaurence JonesKeymasterHi,
I am just adding the finishing touches to this month’s newsletter – I will add a request to that for you Claudiu and hope a Club Member can help.
Laurence
Laurence JonesKeymasterHi Claudiu @kadudu
If only I still had the gearbox too, you could have had this 3.6 engine for sale (mine) for your car – we’d have kept it safe at the garage and helped you organise the shipping.
Oh well, may someone else will buy it soon 🙂
Laurence
Laurence JonesKeymasterHi Claudiu @kadudu
Your English is pretty good – no problem understanding you at all
Thank you for posting some photos of your Cabriolet

When I checked the records, it shows that your Cabriolet was originally Steel Metallic – Did you choose to paint it Red for your wife ?
LaurenceLaurence JonesKeymasterHi John @bleasie
You may recall we discussed this via email a couple of weeks ago, and I explained that indeed Denis had sold his Cabriolet 124809 and it was now in Malta, but if you checked out Denis’s profile entry it showed as Still owned = No.
In the email you sent me you mention that it was sold to Ron Azzopardi (who is not a member) but above you state Roland Cassar (who is a member).
Does that mean Denis sold it to Ron who has sold it to Roland ?
Laurence
Laurence JonesKeymasterPascal @forliteur Ce n’est pas un probleme monsieur.
I have corrected the title from BAC5587 to BCC5587 🙂
So, you are looking for the catch for the Hard Top hood. I’m afraid that’s not something I’ve seen available – the Hard Top hoods themselves are quite difficult to obtain.
Sorry, hopefully someone else might be able to help.
Laurence
Laurence JonesKeymasterHi Pascal @forliteur
I can’t find the part BBC 5587 in the documentation – could you please describe the part and where it is located.
Laurence
Laurence JonesKeymasterLaurence JonesKeymasterHi Robin @woodsmoke
Thanks for your input.
It’s difficult to add information alongside the topic/reply discussion because there is little room to do so and hard to decide what to add and what not to.
However, what I can do is have a look at enhancing the Profile Page that you route to when you click on the member’s link.
I’ve some ideas, but will give it some thought 🙂
Laurence
Laurence JonesKeymasterIt does seem we’ve been having a lot of new members join recently – which is good news 🙂

Laurence JonesKeymasterHi Robin @woodsmoke and John @bleasie
I have just this minute launched the revamp of the Forums for all members. There is a new navigation route via the Discussions option on the main menu bar. This has the following features :
1/ Just click on the Discussions button and you are taken to the list of all discussions (topics/replies) that have been posted on our Club website
2/ Hover over the Discussions button and you see a drop down list
==> Top 10 Most Recent Discussions
==> All discussion topics (same as just clicking on the Discussions button
==> Then the specific Discussion forums – enabling you to focus on just Technical discussionsI’ve standardised these views for all logged in Club Members.
