Thanks, Malc.

I hope you will be able to get there.

Regards,

Peter.

I think we have 16 people coming.

As the auctioneer says, "do I see 20?"

Hi again Peter, yep, please do count me ''in'' on this ........ many many thanks indeed,

Malc ( aka Phosphor Blue )

Less than two weeks to go.

Are there any more members who want to have breakfast surrounded by Jaguars?

Peter.

The weather is going to be good on the 2nd April.

I have also had a message fro Swansway  --  the will be a discount card for those attending that is worth having.

Regards,

Peter.

Hi there Peter,

Hi All, 

We have received an invitation to the opening event of the new Jaguar Dealership in Crewe by Swansway Garages.

Swansway Garages are a family owned business that have quite a few franchises across the West Midlands and the North West of England, with their Headquarters in Crewe, which is easily accessible across the whole of the Region.  

There will be Breakfast on arrival at 10.00 am on Sunday, 2nd of April 2017, followed by a Tour of the brand new purposely built premises.  There will be full range of current Jaguar Models, plus other cars, and those attending can have a test drive.

Swansway have offered a £500 discount on cars purchases [on top of other offers] plus a 15% discount to all JOC members until June.

This is a great opportunity for all members of the JOC to meet in a very pleasant environment to view the new models, to chat to each other and get to know other members who your have "talked" to but never met.

IMPORTANT:  Swansway would like an indication to know how many will attend, and to that end please attach your name plus the number of others with you.  Wives/ partners are welcome and it could be a very pleasant day out.  

The address of the new Dealership is Beswick Road, Crewe, and the Postcode is CW1 5NP.

I look forward to a good number of members and their cars being there on the day.

Regards,

Peter.

Can't wait, am REALLY REALLY looking forward to this Peter, many many thanks for taking the trouble to arrange this for us all,

Malc ( Phosphor Blue ) ;-) 

 

And it was a great morning.  Sun shone as I promised, nice breakfast, nice people, nice cars, and an E type with the daughter  [Mary Sayer] of the designer  [Ms;cp;d Sayer] coming in style.  Thanks to all, and thanks Mary,

Regards,

Peter.

 

It was a good morning 😎

HI Peter

I took a couple of pictures

cheers

Joe

 

Nice ones, Joe.

A few more than me  --  I was getting a lot of information from Mary Sayer about he Dad for inclusion in the book I am currently writing.  I have included a whole chapter about Malcolm Sayer, as he has been somewhat forgotten.

By the way, your S Type is rather immaculate!

Regards,

Peter.

It was a great day and turned out a great sunny one

Hi everyone, WOW, what a brilliant day on Sunday, absolutely LOVED IT, even if ( for me ) finding the place was a ted tricky!!!! Was absolutely lovely to meet you all, and ''if'' I'm ever able to upload the photo's i took, I will do ....... 

Best Wishes to you all, and GREAT to meet up,

Malc ( Phosphor Blue )

It Was a great day, made so by those who were there.  I will thank Swansway Jaguar on behalf of the Club.

The idea of an April meet annually springs to mind.

I wonder if members would be interested in an October meet?

Regards,

Peter.

 

Hi there Peter, I for one would be very interested in another meet up, as it was just sooooo good yesterday!!!! I did pop into Swansway and thank them for their hospitality, and breakfast etc, am quite sure a note from your good self would go down very well indeed with them 

I think any ''soot'' that may have been in / around the DPF has now been well and truly dispatched, a 303 mile round trip, and worth every millimetre of it.

Many many thanks again for arranging it all for us Peter,

Very Best Wishes,

Malc ( Phosphor Blue )

Hi Peter,

It sounds like a great day was had! I'd be interested in a future meetings, including something in October. But as I'm on the Isle of Wight, it does present some logistical considerations!

I had the pleasure of visiting the British Motor Museum in Gaydon last week, including the amazing Jaguar collection, which included the 'last of the line' STR I show below. I can't recommend it enough, any club member would love it I'm sure.

So I'm also interested in the Jaguar breakfast meets Joe mentioned are held at the venue. If I had an excuse to be in the vicinity, perhaps we could get a few S-Types along and meet there?

All the best, Russ

Thanks very much Peter for a great morning and a big thanks to "Swansway" for their warm  welcome, coffee and bacon/sausage butties.

Good to meet other members

Hi Russ

Its good at The heritage museum, The year pass is quite cheap and good value, as you can go as many times as you want, in the next 12month of purchase

last time I went took some pics, have a look here pics

Theres a E-type meeting there on the 9th April, Sunday next weekend, I'm going have a look

cheers

Joe

Thanks Peter for a great morning, good to put faces to names and see some fantastic cars too. For those who wanted to know where I got my brakes it was from here www.mtecbrakes.com

 

It was a good day, Steve.

A meet around Easter is always a good idea, although not mine

Peter.
