Junkman Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 That's an even bigger pile of shite than the one we are trying to flog atm, so it should sell well.I'm out, though, sadly.

Conrad D. Conelrad Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 A note for anyone on the fence: I've been blown away by how good the Jag is. It's probably the nicest method of transport I've ever used. The ride is sublime, the seats beautifully comfortable, and even the economy is acceptable provided you never find the 'sport' button under the gear shifter. You should find that button though, because the engine in these is a lot of fun. You should also jump at the chance of winning this car for less than the price of 801 Fruit Salad chews.

Guest Breadvan72 Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 Come on, chodbotherers, this heap is too good to be sold on the Gum and used for Brexit celebrations by soon to be permanently unemployed flat roofed pub users.

Magnificent Rustbucket Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 My word, an actual unrusty sunroof panel! Not often you see one of those! Replacing the sunroof panel is an easy and fairly quick job on the XJ40. To remove the old panel, open the sunroof far enough that you can see the (?5) screws which hold the panel onto the car on the front of the panel, facing the front of the car. Move the sunroof forward a bit so it is a couple of inches from being closed and lift the panel up at the front and pull/slide it forward. There will be some resistance felt from the rubber seal, but it will come out! Putting in the replacement is the reverse of this. It isn't difficult, if somewhat nerve wracking about scratching the paint on the roof. If you don't repaint this one, it will look dark against the red paint like one of those fancy smoked glass ones! Cool and on a budget! Does the blower work on defrost but not at other speeds? - That's a common failure and is generally caused by faulty Darlington resistors on the blower motors. eddyramrod 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
