Excuse my horsey ignorance. I've spent too much time reading car mags.

I checked on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palomino and the second photo is very light, but I take your point.

Neigh, neigh

Is it a palamino ?

Thanks DH

Hi all,

Can anyone tell me how I'd go about removing the radio from my 1990 XJ-S 3.6
It's a bit tempramental and I'm wondering about swapping in another make of radio/casette I've got lying around at home (a Blaupunkt).

Thanks, Julian

I'm a late joiner to this topic. Several of the lines on mine didn't work when I bought my car 8 years ago. It gradually got worse until it was down to only two operating, so I had a brand new rear window fitted. I don't think this new one works either now - hmmm. I really ought to look into this, b...

Hi Pop,

Welcome back from your UK jaunt. That's quite a distance you covered. Are you dreading the fuel costs appearing on your next credit card bill ?
Looking forward to seeing the 'Cat on Tour' photos.

Hi Simon, Congratulations on passing the IAM test, and in a car like the XJ-S. Not your average driving test car :D I passed my ADI Part 2 advanced driving test for the second time back in April (as part of the qualifying process to become a driving instructor). I therefore know what you've been thr...

Hi Jonathan, You lucky thing !!! I'd like one of those X300-XJR's myself. I gather there's a common X300 problem whereby the bumper brackets can rust and the bumpers then fall off, so get that checked out. If you don't get any advice here then try http://www.kelsey-forums.co.uk/cgi-bin/jwm/YaBB.pl?b...

Hi Simon,

Thanks for the info and handy website link

Hi Simon, I've been looking at the justtickets.co.uk website you recommended. They list loads of different ticket categories which you can buy. Which type of ticket do you recommend - General Enclosure ? Do you need to upgrade to go in the grandstands ? How do you go about booking a camping pitch/ o...

Hi Simon,
Some useful stuff there. Thanks for the tips.
All the best, Julian

I'd like to go, but won't be able to say YAY or NAY until nearer the time.

Regards, Julian

Hi Simon, I'm very pleased you had a great trip and that the car behaved itself. Your photos capture the event well (I have now signed up to Photobucket). Well done with the action shots. I assume the weather stayed good too. Some questions: Which racing team did you support - Aston, Corvette? Did y...

Bon voyage

Hi again Simon, I've given it more thought, and also consulted my own holiday list. In addition to what we've already come up with I'd advise: Footpump & guage Torch (I bought one of those wind-up ones) Red triangle Fuel can WD40 Re: Fire extinguisher - HAS IT DATE EXPIRED ? Also, if it has a pressu...
