To be honest Dave I left the calipers on i got a bit of masking tape, I was very careful with brush in hard to reach areas, all I used was a wire brush on them and a screw driver to help get lumpy bits off, I'm also a member of celica club uk to, on calipers of my old celica I used yellow hammerite it was a blue car and looked very well, on the jag I wanted to make it look cleaner behind wheel but thought the best colours wud be gold or silver, think it depends on colour of car.

As for any jobs planned thinking of getting a hid kit for headlamps due to normal x type problems

Hi Dave

Thank u for the welcome and comments, when I looked at car the one thing I knew I needed to to was get rid of the rusty looking brake calipers and chose gold which I think look well on it.

Hi burl

Thank u for the welcome, yes it's my first Jaguar I first looked at it due to my last car (vectra) was very expensive to run, so I went for a test drive and was very impressed with it.

Hi

Just like to introduce my self, I bought a x-type about three weeks ago its a 2.0 diesel classic on a 54 plate

Hope to get to some meetings and meet members
