JT1550,
Welcome to the club and to the BB, hope you enjoy poking around. If you have any questions then do not sit on them, ask away I am sure we can answer most things. If not somebody will have experienced a similar problem or condition.
Best of luck with your XJS.

Re: Hi all, First time XJS owner in South Wales.
Kev, Welcome to the club and I hope you enjoy all that is going on in the Club. If you need any help ask on the BB as I am sure that there are answers here to most problems. One of my cars is a 1995 XJS Coupe in Ice Blue metallic effect colour and Regatta Blue inside, so we have something in common....

Regards the footwell carpets. If you have not got any yet, probabably the best solution is to get them from a specialist like BAS in Wales. Who manufacrure them and all sorts of pieces for Jaguars.
Best regards, Brian Harris

Re: Facelift XJS Footwell Carpets?
There might be small differences in the shape of the "Facelift" XJS Footwell Carpets around where the switches are fixed inside the "A post" covers.

Re: Under bonnet paint
Davidr, One place where you can buy most of the mixed colours is Halfords. If you know the colour code that you need (read on the plate on the left inner front wing). The last colour I bought was Signal red. This was made up in a small pack as I only wanted it for rust and digs. It cost me £15.00 tw...

Re: New battery
Happycat, I have just bought a new battery yesterday from Lincon for my XJS celebration. It cost me £69.00 with a £5.00 discount and included fitting as well as scrapping the old one. The fitting chap tells me that I bought my old one 5 and bit years ago and it was no longer holding the charge as we...

Re: XJS 40th events . anything happening ??
To all who run and love a Jaguar XJS, This year is, as we all know, the 40th anniversary of our favourite model. We have now got Christmas and the New Year festive season out of the way so we should be able to think of a fitting event that we can take from show to show. My main problem is what shall...

Re: LOSS OF COOLANT + BLUE SMOKE AT IDLE
portiacat, I am sorry to hear your story of the trouble you are having with your engine. There is a Jaguar maintenance man who has been working on XJS cars for many years and lives in Farnham, Surrey. He trades as PSV Engineering, charges £50.00 an hour and is not too far away from you. Now Paul is ...

Re: New battery
Cliff Hi, Regarding your new battery. We had a few messages going in October this year. My advice would be for you to phone or email Lincon batteries of Leigh on Sea, Essex, as they still make them for your car. Their phone number is 01702 528 711 and their email is www.lincon.co.uk. The last one I ...

Re: New Battery
Paul, I am sorry to contradict you on the statement that no firms now make motor industry batteries in the UK. My favourite firm is Lincon Batteries of Leigh on Sea. They make all sorts for cars, trucks, caravans and boat applications. Over 50 different models for vintage cars alone. The name and te...

Re: First time XJS owner says hello!
Merlcole 1, Welcome to our Club. A further thing you should try in order to isolate the hood working problem. Leave the hood in the closed and locked position. Open the rear side windows via their own switches on both sides. The windows will operate after 7 seconds or so. These can also be operated ...
