Any other XJS owners on here? I've joined the club which I've detailed here:

Hi There,
I've had my XJ-SC 3.6 Cabriolet for well over 20 years, which I built from a damaged donor and a new bodyshell. It's a fantastic tool and you'll have lots of fun with yours. BTW the windscreen trim is stainless not chrome.

There is some info on my website about the Cabriolet and my newly acquired XJ8

Regards, Ian

Lovely car!

I've got a 1991 V12 manual. Love it to bits, but watch for rust; mine's going in for some surgery soon after a poke-around under the carpets revealed some nasty looking rot...

The uk forums seem to be pretty slow as a whole, but guess the 'best' one I've been on is:

There's an American one too, which is more active, but all the adverts seem to upset my computer, so I've not been on it much:

The Jaguar Enthusiasts' Club XJS forum has a section called 'the price of fish'.
Eh?

A belated hello from an owner of a facelift 4.0 smile

I haven't really spent a lot of time on other forums but I'm lucky to have a couple of local people near Norwich that can source bits and do the work I need.

I think the fact that XJS forums are generally quiet is in line with the fact that the cars are still under the radar of most.
