Hi Andrew, Most modern cars have loads of electrical sensors and if something quite minor needs attention the EML comes on. Getting a diagnostic tool such as an OBD2 side scanner [ £20 off eBay] will tell you the code, a quick google will tell you what it means, and another quick request to the club members will tell you the solution. My son has just bought an X Type Sport estate 2.0D with 91k on the clock on an 06 plate for £3,250, so I am sure you will find one within your budget. Regards, Peter.

That has to be an XJ or XJS then I would think? But may need some work? The guys on the forum will have much better knowledg than me. I recently looked at an XJS, starting price was £500 but needed lots and lots of work. Again it depends on what you're prepared to do? If you just want to stick the key in the ignition and drive away, then you will have to look around I think for your budget, in that age bracket.

Hi Steve, You have the same toolkit as do I. I either listen to Radio 4, CDs, or the sound of the engine, Peter.

Welcome to the Club, Ross. The 2.7 diesel is a very good engine, but you must give it a longish run at least once a month to regenerate the DPF -- a great excuse for a good day out! You might be able to get the trim from a Jaguar breaker, but the it possible to get some new fro, some one like SNG Barrett or the David Manners group. I hope you enjoy the club and your S Type. Regards, Peter.
