Dear fellow XJ8 owners,

In my role as your X-308 Model Section Coordinator I am in the initial stages of organising a formal get-together to celebrate the 25th Anniversary of the launch of the X-308 to take place later this year. The plan is to line up as many X-308s as we can along the impressive frontage of the Jaguar Land Rover Classic Works in Ryton, near Coventry on Saturday 1st October 2022. Wouldn’t that look fantastic?
The date has been agreed and provisionally booked with JLR, however I do need to let them know the approximate numbers wishing to attend. If you would like to be involved in this notable occasion, please PM me your contact email address so that I can add you to the list in order to keep you updated as the details of the day pan out. Please do try to come along.

Best regards,
David Mattocks

I’m in, wheres the rest of the X308 owners? Come on let’s celebrate this occasion in style! What better place than Jaguar Classic Works at Ryton.

Thank you Doug. Yes indeed, I was wondering the same thing... where are you all? This is a momentous anniversary of the launch of the X-308 and what a perfect venue to celebrate it. It will be a great day. Turning up unannounced won't work, we have to pre-book the numbers interested in attending with JLR. Send me an email at X308@jecmodels.org.uk or twojagsdave@gmail to get yourself included on the list. Do try and come along.

What date did you have in mind as need to plan around work
Cheers

Same date as my orginal post... 1st October 2022.

Where are all the X308 owners? If you are going to this event on 1st October please indicate on this forum. David is trying his best in making these arrangements and after all it is the 25th Anniversary year of the XJ8!

A good turnout yesterday in Coventry, I thought, and we were lucky with the weather! I really enjoyed looking around JLR Classic Works too! Thanks for organizing this event David.

Yes, a brilliant turn out and I counted 36 XJ8/R's in attendance. Well done to all that managed to attend this gathering to celebrate 25yrs since the production on the X308 started in 1997.
