Recommended XJS Servicing near Southampton please

[theoden]

A work colleague has a XJS v12, 5.3ltr, 1990 which he loves. His old garage has stopped doing these 'older' Jags. Would you please have anywhere near Southampton/Bournemouth that you could recommend to get it serviced? He does not want to take it just anywhere as this car means a lot to him!

Thanks in advance.

We have also been doing a couple of XJs recently. We are based in Andover so not that far from Southampton.

Winspeed are at Guildford.
Try asking the local JEC or JDC there must be local Jag specialist.

Without wishing to drift far off topic, has anyone used Winspeed? They are quite a new set up. I've used HA Fox Guildford for the past 12 years with the two S-Types I've owned in succession.

Not used them but know them quite well
They used to be at Racing Green then went independant a couple of years ago
I would say they are more into the Classic Jags, not saying they can't do Moderns as well

I was happy with Arun for my X300, not exactly local but they did include a courtesy car.

Winspeed is Chris Window (technical) and Peter Hugo (Sales) who used to be the classic dept at Racing Green. A few of the other guys there have joined them too, including Jay who's a Jaguar trained technician on the modern stuff :-)

I've been using them since they setup, they're doing work on my XK150 and have serviced my X300. I find them much easier to deal with than the old setup they were in at RGC.

Thanks NormanD & a8hex, food for thought. I may pop along there for a chat.

Thanks to everyone who's replied so far, I'll pass the info on, he wants his car to be in good hands!
