I believe that some of the aftermarket versions may have to be lowered first. Perhaps someone else could confirm or deny that rumour.

I have the Classic Additions WD. I leave it raised all the time, and the roof can be opened/closed without it fouling the deflector.

The second button on the J-gate is the cruise control button.

On older models it was. On the '02 or '04 facelift, the second button is the Automatic Speed Limiter button.

Home from Poland for the weekend so took the opportunity to head North for the Scottish Jaguar Day. I thought I had missed it, as by the time I was nearing Lanark at 2pm, there was a never ending stream of classic Jags passing me in the opposite direction :? Got there and thankfully there were still...

Nice silent movie but where's the lovely noise? Perhaps we can hear it at Harewood?

Have you turned your speakers on

Sounds great Paul

'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house, the only thing stirring, was a Microsoft mouse Logging on each day in search of a natter And contribute my bit to the internet chatter Discussions on XK’s, both 8’s and R’s These wonderful Jaguars are truly great cars So have you a coupe ...

I got the same letter, ironically the day after I posted this message. They reckon Issue 4 will be out after Christmas and that will be the last one.

Last year I subscribed to the new quarterly DVD from the club. I received the following issues: Issue 1 (Autumn 05) Issue 2 (Winter 05) Issue 3 (Spring 06) It's now just dawned on me that I never got Issue 4, which would have been due out in the summer. Looking at the magazine and website, I can see...

Hi, I take it you have seen this post elsewhere on the forum :

Wind Deflectors

I have one from Classic Additions, it works to a fashion, but isn't brilliant. I think they all involve drilling holes.

One question I have, does anyone know a good place to get a tracker fitted in Midlands area?? Not sure about Tracker, but as you are in Derby, for everything else you need done to your Jaguar, then I recommend Elite & Performance Jags, on Stores Road Industrial Estate. www.eapj.com They have done a ...

Re the chains etc. My local specialist cannot understand why I want to spend all that money on changing them when they are OK. He is quite adamant that they are not the problem we all think they are. He holds that if they are quiet when you start the engine from cold ( overnight) they are OK. He als...

Maybe you just had a good Sunday morn lay-in - and why ever not, I wish I could do that

Didn't get up until just after noon, so gave Harewood a miss this year

Not decided yet. Been away with work all week and will have loads to catch up on. Depends how early I get out of bed on Sunday as to whether I make it. If I do, then I'll see you there.

Ditto all the above :lol: I'm on my second XK8. My current car, a 2004 convertible is 18 months old and has done 25,000, so I guess I'm a high mileage driver. They say Pride is one of the 7 deadly sins, in which case, I'm way beyond salvation. It's over 2 years since I first bought an XK, but every ...

I've always just scrubbed it with soapy water and given it a good rinse afterwards. My car is just over a year old and I don't feel the need to use expensive conditioners on it yet. My roof is green, so I suppose I get away with more than a light colour like yours. Most of the guys over on XKEC use ...

I've spent most of the night searching the web, and whilst there's loads of information, I'm still none the wiser as to what coolant I should be using. Bit of background. I've got a low coolant warning and it's certainly low in the header tank, as I can see the top of what I guess are the sensors. M...
