A quick reminder regarding the Suffolk meet at VSCC Snetterton on Saturday 21st September 2019 . Tickets are available from the VSCC: https://www.vscc.co.uk/events/event/1366/formula-vintage-snetterton (note that, although this meeting was originally planned as a single 6-hour endurance team race, i...

I'll be there (also VSCC Cadwell Park in July).

I have seen both types fitted on original cars.

These are both 1938 2½-Litres:



Let me know if they fit!

Neil, Mine are pretty crusty too. I see you chose the 506 discs: http://www.vintageandclassicshockabsorbers.co.uk/communities/8/004/011/194/158/images/4598493889_200x150.jpg although the version on my Suffolk look more like 306: http://www.vintageandclassicshockabsorbers.co.uk/communities/8/004/011/...

Nice looking C-Type.

Seen here at the Classic Motor Show 2017:

I've probably only seen one Suffolk SS100 that wasn't on Blockleys. They're pretty good when you consider the limitations of the tread design and crossply construction. Braking in very wet conditions can be "interesting", as I found on my return journey from Grimsthorpe, when every press of the peda...

Yes, welcome aboard.

There aren't that many Suffolks in the JEC, so don't expect Pistonheads.

Spotted at VSCC Prescott Long Course Meeting (29th September 2018): https://c2.staticflickr.com/2/1903/44103485325_7333019e2c_b.jpg https://c2.staticflickr.com/2/1959/30078516547_46663cb5b9_b.jpg 1938 SS Jaguar 100 2½-Litre (ERB290 / Chassis: 49033) from the JDHT Collection at Bicester Heritage Sund...

I've been able to use my car a bit more this summer, although, as I said before, I've kept to Roger's recommended tyre pressures of 24 & 28 psi. I pump them up to 30 & 35 psi when not in use (MWS recommend a maximum of 40 psi). Today, as an experiment, I left them up while driving a couple of miles ...

Reg,

It's nice to finally be able to read your article in the Feb '18 issue of the magazine!

A short video by David Gardiner of Classic Metal Shaping, who not only makes the radiator shells for Suffolk, but can also supply every body panel for an original SS100. https://www.classicmetalshaping.co.uk/ss100-parts-and-panels/ THE MAKING OF AN SS100 RADIATOR SHELL: https://youtu.be/pOkvmM6tzgU

Not a replica, but an original unrestored 1938 SS Jaguar 100 3½-litre that was recently discovered in the US. The previously unknown car has been acquired by Jaguar collector/restorer Terry Larson, who intends to leave the external bodywork in its current state, but restore it mechanically. The SS10...

Reg,
Yes, I've seen the Facebook group, but unfortunately I don't do social media (I'm anti-social!).
I know many people who live their lives on line, but it's not for me (certain forums and photo-sharing excepted).
Roy

to my eye, after the MK2 they are the best looking car Jaguar ever produced.

Thanks, Reg - I'll let her know - should bring a smile to the old girls grille!

Robbie

There's a lovely white one (with black vinyl roof) that lives near me. So tempting!
