Hi Recat,

Thanks for the offer of a drink at The Nationals. A coffee and a Bacon butty will be great.

See you all there. Watchout for T13 TBE

Hi everyone, Just when you thought it was safe to go back into the forum again......I'M BACK :twisted: I promise that this will be my last comment on the subject of my 2.7d handling. I have now covered 300 miles on my new set of Dunlops. I cannot put into adequate words the difference in the way my ...

Hi Doug, thanks for your comments. Unfortunately tyres have now been trashed although I still have the fronts in the garage (The F1s') Not being a specialist in the dynamics of rubber compounds, I have to bow down to the knowledge of those who are. I have used this particular branch of Kwikfit for m...

Just remembered. The cost of the 4 tyres was after a 25% discount price would have been something in the region of £1038.00

Hi Mike, Of course, go ahead and submit to the mag if it helps anyone to stay safe I will be happy. Fast drive down the A38 this morning to Derby and I picked a road to come home on that was as bumpy and twisty as I could find. The car behaved absolutely impeecably. Responsive, sure footed not at al...

What a difference a day makes!!!!! :D Having just purchased my 4 refurbished mercury 18 inch wheels it was off to Kwikfit this morning to have the tyres switched over. I arrived explained what I wanted doing and left to go shopping. 30 minutes later, Linda and I were sitting in the coffee shop at Br...

Well hi everyone. Here I am again talking tyres. It is time to change mine on my 07 plate 2.7d XS all 4 corners. The handling issue persists :cry: and the car has just sailed through its MOT. No problems found, no advisories nothing but it still handles like a gurney (that's an american hospital tro...

50,651 miles Finally had mine done a couple of weeks ago at Elite performance Jags in Derby. Total bill £499.12p of which a big proportion was the oil with the sump coming in next and then labour after that. Car does seem a little slicker on the changes now. Interesting that they advised that I do n...

Hi everyone. Been a long time since I have had time to get on the forum so just catching up. Misting is a problem that I am experiencing but not I believe because of any failing of the system. As many will now I work nights and drive all accross the midlands for work. Now that the cold, damp, foggy ...

Hi Hammie, Welcome aboard. That is one really pretty car. Hopefully wewill see you on the forum on a regular basis and at one or more of the many get togethers in the year. If you are in the Nottinghamarea at all get in touch and we can get together for a Natter and a Noggin. Goos luck regards Iain

Well,here we are again. I have just had my car into Elite Performance jaguar in Derby for its service. Although it has only 47k miles on because it is 4 years it was the 60k service which came to £246...not bad I thought. Anyway. When I arrived, I explained the problems that I was experiencing nad l...

Hi Mike, I am sure that we will both let you know all about it when we get together. Take some pics etc. I am going to drop you an article for future use about another s type in my area who I have just persuaded to become a member. Nip over to the original thread on my handling for an update. Cheers...

Hi Dave, Thanks for the suggestion. I am not to far from you (about hour and a half) so may well take you up on your offer as it will also give me the opportunity to see how yours handles compared to mine. See mylong ongoing thread in new member about my handling or lack of it. Will be in touch Chee...

Hi Doug and Mike,

I opened a thread about having a one class day for the s type next year where we could all get together for a cruise and a get together. But there seems to be very little interest

Cheers

Iain

Hi All, My 2007 plate 2.7d is due for its service now and although it has only covered 46000 miles it will need its 4 year 60k service. Does anyone know what this service involves? I have a few dealers and specialists and they all say fluids and filters and a few other things but these few other thi...
