I joined JEC and this forum in 2017 when I acquired my Mk2. I have found many useful articles and had great support from members which has guided me to a successful complete nut and bolt restoration, which I finished between lockdowns in 2020. Unfortunately, due to medical reasons, I will have to sell her, long story, which facilitates the title of this post. I have too much information on the car to accurately describe her in a standard advert so, as we are in lockdown again, I have spent quite some time to learn how to create a small web site for interested parties to browse. The web site, for anyone interested, can be found at https://retiredearly9.wixsite.com/jaguar-mk2 I am not leaving JEC as I have already bought another much younger automatic Jaguar to support our European touring passion, just a shame it will not be in what I believe is my stunning Mk2. So, thank you to everyone who contributes to this forum, I, and I am sure others, learn so much from reading older and current posts and of course thank you to those who have responded to my requests for help over the years.

Such a shame after all the hard work. Best of luck with a sale which will be well deserved with such a high spec car.
Hope you keep well and enjoy your new purchase.
Regards,

Thank you PPV, for information my Mk2 is now sold. There has been a lot of traffic to the web site I created and unsurprisingly the vast majority of viewers left after reading the price on the first page. I too would have thought that asking £32,000 for a 240 was too much but, as a little encouragement for fellow owners, with the right quality offering it is possible to achieve close to that price. I didn't get £32,000 but the first number of the actual sale price is a 3. Safe and happy motoring to all members. This is Goodbye.

Or Maybe Not. Since last year when I posted this thread and recovered from the surgery necessitated by the medical reason for selling my Mk2, I needed to find another project. Another full car was out of the question for HTSBO so I bought a dilapidated Mini engine based Beach Buggy which was very easy to work on, but I have now finished that project too. Fortunately, I have now viewed and bought an unfinished Daimler V8 250 project advertised in the JEC Classifieds and am arranging collection next weekend. I still have my Japanese import XJ40 which is just a beautiful drive but is not a real project. I am looking forward to the strip down and rebuild of the Daimler and no doubt I will be back here with questions and updates and gaining your support as I have in the past. Tony D
