Dan, My view is that it depends on the reason you have chosen to buy the Jaguar. If you are a purest you will probably want originality, which is "the side of the fence that I sit on", but if not I suppose the cheapest option is probably the best. Whatever you do it has to be what suits you and pleases you the best. Welcome to the club and Best Wishes, John

No problem, Regards, John

FZ, Not at all. It is not for me to judge your car. The car looks good, as far as the photo shows. My comments were merely based on your original submission which was asking for a price guide and any help being appreciated. I think it is so, that nobody on this Forum, would condemn or think very little of anyone's car. Every comment that was made seems to be an opinion on helping you, as you requested. As has been stated: Each to their own and again I wish you well with disposing of your car. Regards, John

You are very correct when you say we all have different views. I personally would not have much faith in anything that is suggested by TopGear. I think that programme is no longer an informative media but just light hearted entertainment. I do sincerely hope you find the buyer for your car that is of the same opinion as yourself. Best Wishes and Regrads, John

Hi FZ, I think you may have misunderstood the point that JOE-DOT-COM was making with regards to your enquire about value of the car. The point being made was that the car is not necessarily worth extra monies due to it being modified, in fact many serious buyers of Jaguars of this era will be looking for Original Equipment as it was built and left Jaguar production line. It is often originality, mileage, service history, as well as the all important condition that dictates what a buyer is prepared to pay for any given vehicle. The point being made about modified vehicles is very true and very, very important regards insurance. Quite often insurance companies in general will not want to quote for insurance cover on modified vehicles. The specialist insurers that will/do quote are very likely to charge premiums for the cover. Also consideration has to be made to the fact that if modifications are not declared, then the insurance would/could become null and void, in the event of any incident. Best Wishes and Regards, John

Roger, Did you report this overfilling to the garage that did the service for you. Was the oil you removed as new oil should be. I would if mine like to no that the oil was not contaminated in any way, water, fuel etc., which could have caused the increase in level. No doubt the garage would deny they had overfilled. I would be concerned about using that same garage again for work on a car of mine. Hope things continue to be well with the car. Best Wishes and Regards, John

Thank You, Regards, John

Was the 320 mm front brake disc only fitted to the more powerful V8 engine model S Type, or was it also fitted to the smaller powered models as well. What is and which models were fitted with a Sport Suspension. Many thanks and Regards, John

I use a Foseal OBD 11 reader and find it usually quite adequate to at least identify where the problem is. Also have this for sale on the Forum, if of any interest to you.
