barefoot Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 I love raffles, even when I've not got a ticket.You'll love it Si, I love my XJ 8 & I've kept it much longer than I planned to, just because it's so nice.

SiC Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 If you wanted to pay for a flight to Dundee, my train back to NEWBS from Bristol, and the fuel back down then I could do a planes, trains and automobiles collection on your behalf, probaby some time next week or the following weekend.Can't see that being a cheap option though! Infact I believe your FiL lives in NEWBS? I could even drop off the MGB, unless it kerplodes on the way there as you predict.... I have AutoAid though.... PM me if it may be of interest and we can see if it could work out.Thanks for the offer. Usually that would have worked out really well. However I'm possibly planning a roadtrip with a mate up there (flights then drive down)! I reckon it could be great fun thing to do.

As long as you have a good one to start with (like the one here) there is literally no downside to owning these old Jags apart from having to pay a bit more at the pumps. They are cheap as chips to insure on classic policies so that negates some of the car tax bill. Apart from that it's just fuel you'll get through and regular maintenance. For the style, presence, comfort, people coming up and starting a pleasant conversation, and driving experience I say the large fuel bill is a small price to pay. Enjoy being a Winrar SiC! Should be a nice drive back from Dundee. Magnificent Rustbucket and SiC 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiC Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 I guess it's too late to say that my cat bidded for me?? I've always wanted an XJ - actually XJ8, but can happily settle on a nice working 12 pound XJ6 for now. FiL I think is quite tempted as a fun starter classic car too.

clayts450 Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 I think we should do a shiter's relay to deliver it in stages to SiC, so all us losers* can have a mere whiff of the high life. I'll happily do the leg which includes somewhere close to Nottingham to somewhere close to Nottingham (say 50-100 mile radius). Kringle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiC Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 Anyone got suggestions on insurance brokers/providers who will do this age Jag on classic car policies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Furious Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 It should be within the age criteria of Footman James, whether they consider it a classic or not is another question. They do online quotes though so its easy enough to find out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tickman Posted August 2, 2018 Author Share Posted August 2, 2018 Anyone got suggestions on insurance brokers/providers who will do this age Jag on classic car policies? I got it insured in the Mrs name, no No Claims in her name for £250 fully comp for the year. I didn't even try for a classic policy at the time.

Bucketeer Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 All of mine are with Footman James. They can be a bit flakey with what they accept as a classic though. 1994 Citroen AX - classic, 1988 Vauxhall Senator - not classic.I tried the online quoting for my Volvo and computer said no. I then tried again a few hours later and computer said yes. It's a bit of a lottery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
