Hi Andrew
Could you please give me more details about the shoot. You say South Yorkshire.......abit vague. :D Whereabouts in South Yorkshire.
I'm only in Manchester, so not too far away.
I have a Jag XJ8 (X308) V8, Reg S273BGK.
Could you please post more details....sounds intriguing.
Thanks
Tony :D

A late response to my offer of a car for this photo shoot came in on Sunday, they have chosen my car for the shoot.
Not much detail other than i need a passport to even get in, and its something to do with V8 engined cars.......i will if possible take some pics and let the forum know about the happenings, if there is an interest.

Be wary of these requests,i did the whole thing,accepted their request,prepared the car and made the trip out to Both Robin Hood airport and Finningley with very skimpy directions only to be told by phone when i couldn't find where they were that it had been cancelled a week before....then i was told to submit any expense i had so i claimed for the petrol cost.......resulting in nothing.......So Practical Classics are a rubbish magazine in my eyes.......hope this saves any others contemplating a photoshoot...........Joe
