I have owned a still beautiful Phoenix Red 1998 first reg XKR coupe since 2006, third owner. Although used regularly throughout its life it's genuine mileage is only about 90,000, and it has been well maintained. Unfortunately on latest MOT it has been comprehensively failed on major suspension faults with problems of chassis rust at critical points, with the result that a fix will require complete strip out of front section of the car. With further similar issues on the way (note as advisories) and some small incipient body issues. Impact is a repair bill well in excess of the car's value and garage (thoroughly reputable and knowledgeable) recommend scrapping as only viable option. Any suggestions? At very least the superb engine, gear box etc should go to a good home? I am concerned that the online "scrap my car merchants" will not only con me, but also that the car will literally be scrap metal. Knocking on 78 and not technically competent, reckon I am past " a project". Help?

HI CAN ANYBODY CAN TELL ME WERE IS THE STARTING RELAY IS ON CAR IT JUST CLICKING THANKS ALLAN

Hi, from experience I've come to learn when it says quality its not always on about the "quality" of your adblue solution itself, but in fact the quality in which it is injected in to the exhaust system. So when your adblue injector injects, it does this in a fine mist form, but if your injector is failing/faulty, it may dribble out in droplets or be over injecting/under injecting etc, causing the "quality" of the adblue to not meet the specified requirements to be absorbed to reduce the Nox levels which dominos in to causing Nox sensor faults for readings incorrect.

Hi, I have the same problem with my 2007 XJ8 Park Brake will not disengage

Hi, I have a 55 plate jaguar x type sd, 2.0 I brought it cheap as a friend had terminal cancer, the rac diagnosed as fuel pump which we have replaced. I've been told it's the transit version engine. We have replaced the fuel and fuse box but it still won't start, unable to plug diagnostic machine in can anyone give us an idea what it can be as so far I spent £300 on parts.

Hi Dave, there is a full information site at the DVLA website on how to register an imported vehicle, but you may be short of relevant paperwork. Best place to start is DVLA and if you follow the link below, you will see what it entails. Importing vehicles into the UK: Registering an imported vehicle - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk) Alternatively, you may wish to approach some of the other Jaguar Clubs, such as Jaguar Enthusiasts'' Club, see www.jec.org.uk who have access to specialists in touch with DVLA and they too would be able to assist.
