Im not sure if the later cars have immobiliser chips built into the keys?
I have had a similar problem with 2 of my previous cars and It turned out with both that there was a fault with the immobiliser chips in each key?
Though I know nothing about Jaguar keys?

Re: New Chap Here - Be Gentle!
Always have been a fan of mr Chadwick's designs ;) I found a common misconception was that the most seem to think that the Griff is a "bored out" Merlin - both are totally separate designs and both were around during the early stages of the war, very closely related to the engines in the Schneider c...

Re: New Chap Here - Be Gentle!
Hi Rob
Just Jane is utterly breathtaking! I cant wait to see her back in the air again where she belongs! (Wont be too long hopefully)
You cant beat proper english engineering, when it comes to the shack, as my sig suggests, it really is "hammer fixes everything"

The Mawgan one is still there, though for how long I don't know

Hi Mike
It is indeed, That would be WR963 at Baginton Airport (Coventry) And as far as I'm Aware, She's the last in the northern hemisphere capable of moving under her own power
This is her running in Jan This year
