If all goes to plan and it's back on the road then yes, it will be brought to some Jaguar/Classic/PH events throughout the year. One of the parents driving, of course wink

I gave it a wash yesterday and today I reinstalled the recharged battery (which seems to hold it's charge well) and fitted screw covers on the front number plate.




And for the first time in a long while - no Anti-Lock failure message on the dashboard;

I have got a series 3 xj12 and they have the audacity to put a H.E (high efficiency!!) badge on the boot from the point when the cylinder heads were revised.
Looking at that H.E badge and knowing I get about 10mpg round town makes me chuckle, lol.

Oh btw, I hate you. I'm 35 only just seriously looking for my first Jag. I'd have loved a project like this at your age, the nearest I got was RC aircraft.
