Hi BB,
I enjoyed the last Kemble visit. Aeroplane's, cars, good company, sunshine, and a good breakfast, what more can you ask for, despite arriving in an imaginary XJ !

Am planning for the next breakfast

Oldtimer.

PS There was absolutely no traffic on the Witney by-pass which made for an excellent run, just hope there were no Feds berried in the hedge rows.

If there was, it might not be just you being concerned about enforcement as I also enjoyed a spirited drive back ... :wink:

Ah, the 'Spirited Drive Back'.
I think that I have heard of it Officer but I was just straight lining the curves to save petrol and wear on the tyres.
I'm environmentally friendly me.
Yes, I know that it says V12 on the back but what a lot of people don't realise is that the V12 XJS has a built in fuel saving mode by mostly running on only 9 or 10 cylinders; this was invented way before stop/start or hybrid tech stuff was foisted upon us.
Take a little more care? Of course I will Officer, and you have a good evening too.

I'm planning to be there also.
Nice write up in the magazine this month and pictures of the 3 XJS's present and my engine! If I'd realised there was going to be a photo of my engine bay I'd have given it a bit more of a polish!!
Looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow and an unhealthy breakfast!!

once small downer on the trip back, an accident in Stroud ( scenic route ) left me stood in traffic with the car getting hotter and hotter, so i broke free of the jams, and went up a steep hill, behind a land rover towing a trailer, at 15mph , so my car got really hot by the time i got to the top, to the point she was getting quite lumpy , luckily it was about 8 miles down hill the other side and she soon returned to a respectable temperature

Glad you had a good morning.

P.S. Due to space issues, the original article write-up was truncated :shock: So this impacted the number photos included.
