Further to that, there is a route between Dundee and Stansted I think.

Please disregard previous, I now very much want to win this.

Thank you to everyone who has paid or arranged payment so far, this is much easier than Gumtree responses for previous cars.

 

For those who's other half is blissfully unaware (like mine was when I won it) the initial 'difficult' atmosphere was soon won over by the fact that the car was so nice in comparison to all the other shit that I have arrived home with.

 

It soon became the source of comments like 'Oh the Jag, yes John won it in a raffle' with a slight smile evident.

 

 

In other news the rear drop links were changed this morning and the slight exhaust leak that had been improved the other day had an exhaust bandage wrapped around the join to get rid of the final bit I couldn't find to fix before putting the clamp back on.

 

The car is now ready for going.

What would it take to retrofit cruise into one of these monsters?

A brick?

Can confirm this.* A car for less than a Chinese takeaway is how missus Moog tells people when I bring stuff back.

 

 

*I may have won** many many cars in roffles where I might have been the only entrant. For the full purchase price.

 

**In missus Moog's eyes

If i win this might be why i don't think it would be used as my daily driver.

On the subject of Cruise Control, as the owner of such an opulent vehicle it would be much more appropriate to hire a fellow to drive you while you enjoy the comfort of the rear bench.

This is an excellent ruse.  Had I not had to fork out over a grand to keep the ST on the road this month I might have been interested in 59 randoms for this.

If it is anything like an XJ40 (and I suspect it is - the X300 is basically a facelifted '40) -  then retrofitting cruise control isn't difficult using secondhand parts. If you join www.xj40.com someone there is bound to have done it and will probably be able to help you. The member Naki.k may even be able to source the parts, since he has broken quite a few X300s. A quick Google of the site suggests retrofitting cruise on an automatic '300 takes about three hours.

I think this is the current state of play. Green is paid.

If I have missed anyone off that has paid let me know.

I fucking hope I don't win. I have Paid.   :oops:

 

Lets get this straight Before I do win :

 

I don't need another car 

It won't fit in the garage.

I have a 3.2 Petrol Saloon

This doesn't have cruise control.

Wife HATES Jaguars for some trivial reason from the 70's 

I don't have the time to fetch it, or fettle it. 

 

On the other hand.........WCPGW

I have been brave and mentioned to missus Moog that I am potentially in a roffle for a Jag.

 

Everything is still attached and I am not sleeping in the shed.

 

She even laughed when I said someone had got me extra tickets so I might get 3 new cars in a week!
