Any XJ40 owners want to be featured in print?

I have been contacted by a monthly Jaguar publication, looking for a feature car.

"You may recall that you helped us out a few months ago in sourcing an XJ40 S for a feature. We're now on the hunt for an XJ40 2.9, which I believe is a very rare beast these days. The more basic the better (if we could find a manual...though I expect that's a big ask).

The feature is very positive, it's about how even the most unloved of the XJ40s in its heyday is an extremely likeable classic today.The car needn't be in mint condition.

If you know of any members who have such a vehicle, I'd be delighted to learn more..."


Anyone interested please mail me and I can put you in touch.

There seem to be 3 UK-based members who have a 2.9 XJ40 in their membership record. If you drop a PM to our XJ40 Forum Co-ordinator he can contact each of the owners to make them aware of the opportunity.
