I was down for the weekend to deliver mk10 and Pick up V12 and stayed at Archie's for the weekend. Thanks Archie '

Excellent day at Hever Castle.
I met Nick and his partner and his lovely xjs(cheers
Nick for the ice creams

Also present Archie and his lady friend.

event was organised by the JEC Kent division..(funny looking bods.)

S type police car..was badged 3,4 but the owner told me it was a 3.8.

A none Jaguar car tried to park in the area and was politely asked to move. Grin

Mine was the only xj40 shape there and was ignored. Alot of the usual e types(so I ignored em) Grin

there was a V12 "N" reg e type for sale at £45000 which a lady behind me said to her husband(in a posh tone)"that it was rather cheap".I don't know whether she meant the car or the price. Huh

This chaps red X type reminded me of the forth rd bridge..as once he had wiped it over he started again.(sure he has been to the London to Brighton run) Grin

But he denied all knowledge.. Wink

Sadly it was all too much for one poor chappie and he may have had an attack of heat exhaustion or maybe a heart attack, Cry

but the band played on....

A good day out.
Then it was back In the V12 and home.... Undecided

It was the shiniest X Type ever and a credit

Nice to meet up with Roly, Archie and is lady friend. Roly thank you also for taking the shot of my better side Grin

Hope you all had a great day. We did seem to get chased around by a swarm of angry wasps which was a little unpleasent and nearly got stung Angry

Thanks also to the Kent Region JEC for putting on a good show. Although I've been a JEC member for some time I do need to join up locally and wil.

Happy days
Nick

Hi Nick, Yes there will be (and I owe you an ice cream!). It will not be the JEC Kent day as previously because that was at Brands and has gone. However, there were several JEC Kent members at our Sussex JEC Borde Hill day recently and I asked about this. I was told that they would be at Hever in early September and I would get an e-mail from Angela to confirm. In view of your question I will check it out. Cheers, apax.

That clashes with the JDC XJ Day at Gaydon, but as that's about 140 miles away and this is local, I think Hever wins it for me, There is also a good show at Capel on the Saturday I believe. Cheers, apax.

Would posters please make some effort to keep to the thread context. The alternative is to start ANOTHER thread to discuss your cars' MOT woes with those that might be interested. Regards, Archie.
