New Mum to a XJ6

[Raffles]

Evening,

I'm the proud owner of a 1997 XJ6 Executive I won on a raffle.  I've never been in one or driven one, so absolute novice and learner here with Jaguar brand.  I've got the logbook in my name and I've taxed it.  Waiting for Adrian Flux to call me tomorrow, but quoted £253.99 for fully comp insurance. 

Collect next Saturday in Montrose and can start adventuring 😄  It shall need O/S/F sill welded, radio looked into and the advisories sorted (bushes all round pretty much), plus TLC on the roof paint, but all minor stuff.  It may even do Rust2Rome (Edinburgh to Rome) via the French Alps if I can convince my friend to leave his Suzuki Swift at home 😉 

3.2l, straight 6, Executive X300 body.  Think I might have to wear black and silver next week to compliment the car, plus a backpack of "stuff" just in case lol

Hi Dan,

Thank you 😊 as imagined, it rose as it excludes AF £45 fee. I paid to have key cover too and it came to £316 ish.

Can't add additional cars to policy but I opted for protected NCB which was more expensive and a bit of a faff getting different quotes from other folk. 

Requirement of an immobiliser wasn't mentioned on the call at all, but when I downloaded the docs, it said I needed a Thatcham category 1 fitted - and no idea what 1 is or if the car has one. Need to call them to discuss as don't want to collect/drive if policy will be void. 

Apart from that, customer service was good 😊

Hi.

I'm glad we could sort your insurance for you.

Have you managed to resolve the Thatcham security issue? 

Regards,

Dan.

Hi Dan, yes, apparently they are fitted as standard on all Jaguar 😊
