looking for a XJS 4 lt face lift / ingress of rain

[paul bic]

Dear all

As a new member can I introduce my sylph

My name is Paul Bicknell I originally come from Warwickshire and moved to the south cost in West Sussex 20 years ago

Although I am a new member I have been associated with Classic cars for over 40 years  I am formally an electronics engineer and worked for

Lucas Aerospace and then moved to the automotive industry with Lucas automotive

Unfortunately the past 15 years I have bean out of the automotive industry

• I am looking for a XJS  4 lt  face lift and I could do with some technical help

There seams to be a history with ingress of water from the front window screen

Is there any advise you could give me also could you please direct me to a supplier of the widow seals as I believe the face lift is different to the previews model

The other major problem appears to be the rain gully behind the A pillar finisher

and causing rain ingress due to rust , Again could any one suggest a repair / fix  as my car will not be garaged during the summer months

• Also looking for  Service manual and Parts manual in paper format

Best Regards Paul

It certainly looks like you have a very specific criteria for the car you are looking for, I hope you find a good one.

I have moved your post into the XJS section of the Forum in the hope that someone can help you with your questions.

Good to have you onboard
