A bit white Jag heavy, are you doing weddings

Go away. I'm being good.

Personally I can't see the difference but Mrs 6C is with you and the Daimler is a far superior car!

The white Daimlers only represent 20% of the fleet shown.

 

BMWs make up a further 20% as do Citroens.

 

You could also say that its a bit "German car heavy" (2 x BMW, 1 x Audi or 30%).

That's only today!

The S2 is off the road at the moment because we have stripped the thread in adaptor that the oil pressure gauge sender screws into and I can't find a replacement.

Yes please to the Daimler bits.

 

Another couple of drinks and I would have bought the Gamma!

If you are going anywhere near J6 M40 you can pick them up, or I could drop them off at yours some time.  Who is the Jag specialist at Milton Keynes?

[Guest Breadvan72]

I do get your way from time to time or your are welcome to visit me. Not sure what my movements are yet but I will be going to Princess Risborough a fair bit in the new year as we are going to have to sell my mothers house to pay the nursing home fees.

 

The Jag specialist in MK are E&E Services MK Ltd. They are the people who put your S1 Sovereign back on the road for me, they did what was necessary for a reasonable price and I would use them again.

It is a 6, Mrs 6C would like a 12 but I am not brave enough!

 

Hold on,we have two 6s maybe we should trade them in for one 12!
