Apologies for not posting in the vid section, but thought to extend the audience for the JAG event..


Watched this rather poorly edited vid which is one of the Chris Harris & friends series, though in this case classed as an Emergency vid, the content being to advertise their JAGUAR day in May at Bicester. I suspect that given the trauma that JLR has experienced that CH & Friends, have taken it upon themselves to promote the marque.... Power to their elbow... Who in the UK or colonies (tic) is not a fan of Jaguar in some degree or other...?

As ever my first Jag was a rather rusty non runner a 66 3.8 S Type, some years later I took on another corroded winged 2.8 XJ6, on which I well remember dropping it`s auto box on to my chest while lying underneath it in my driveway and in a rainstorm soaking wet and covered in ATF... Yeah I spent a bit of time with the "scrap" Jags I owned. I even ran a friends V12 E type for a week and put circa £60 worth of fuel through it enjoying the privilege of driving such a wonderful big cat, though that was not the pinnacle of puss moment for me, that occurred at a shared marque track day at Knockhill, sometime in the 80`s (?) when both a C& D Type took part, I was fortunate to find myself on track (unfortunately not a Morgan owner at the time) following the D type for a few laps, before the red mist overcame my sense of respect and bewilderment of finding myself on a race track following a legendary Jaguar racer......We had similar pace though my brakes were better, and, well, I overtook that wonderful machine...Sigh..! Well I ask you, would you, or would you not have done so too...???
