davehedgehog31 Posted July 29, 2018 Posted July 29, 2018 Further to that, there is a route between Dundee and Stansted I think.

davehedgehog31 Posted July 30, 2018 Posted July 30, 2018 Please disregard previous, I now very much want to win this. Tickman 1
Tickman Posted July 30, 2018 Author Posted July 30, 2018 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. John Split_Pin, Tam, Alanism and 4 others 7
SiC Posted July 30, 2018 Posted July 30, 2018 What would it take to retrofit cruise into one of these monsters?
Coprolalia Posted July 30, 2018 Posted July 30, 2018 Paid. Fingers crossed, I would actually like this. Tickman 1

It soon became the source of comments like 'Oh the Jag, yes John won it in a raffle' with a slight smile evident. 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 aldo135, Magnificent Rustbucket, Flat4 and 5 others 8
New POD Posted July 30, 2018 Posted July 30, 2018 What would it take to retrofit cruise into one of these monsters?If i win this might be why i don't think it would be used as my daily driver.
davehedgehog31 Posted July 30, 2018 Posted July 30, 2018 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. dome, Tickman, aldo135 and 1 other 4
Captain Furious Posted July 30, 2018 Posted July 30, 2018 *I may have won** many many cars in roffles where I might have been the only entrant. For the full purchase price. 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. The Moog and Tickman 2
Magnificent Rustbucket Posted July 30, 2018 Posted July 30, 2018 What would it take to retrofit cruise into one of these monsters? 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. Tickman and SiC 2

New POD Posted July 30, 2018 Posted July 30, 2018 I fucking hope I don't win. I have Paid. 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 SaloonThis 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 The Moog and Tickman 2
The Moog Posted July 30, 2018 Posted July 30, 2018 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! Women are mysterious creatures sometimes. sporty-shite, Flat4, Tickman and 2 others 5
