The two affordable Cars I always thought to have the loveliest lines, are the Cayman and the F Type Coupe, then to throw a spanner in the works the new Alpine A110 was introduced, having been a fan of the original Alpine, I followed the concept and build right up until the new 2018 (UK)...

Time To Move On
After 10 wonderful years of STR ownership and 10 years of Club Membership, its time for me to move on. Without advertising, I sold my Car last September to Christopher Kenneth Smith, a new friend, fellow JEC Member and S Type Forum user, whom I know will take great care of it. My Membership is about...

Re: Buying an S Type R
STR is 5" shorter and 10" narrower, assuming your XJR6 is 197" x 71" (all inc Mirrors)I don't have room to build a bigger garage and I don't want a 350/358.
Maybe I'll buy a Corvette instead.

Re: Auto Transmission replacement
Not necessarily terminal, would be best to have the codes read to see what is listed. Battery could be old or just needing a a proper overnight charge. Faulty wheel sensor can have an effect on the Gearbox. Gearbox might be requiring service and reflash. Car details would help greatly. I'll move thi...
