My neighbour has a 1960s 3.4 Jaguar which his mother bought new it's simply stunning in red with chrome wire wheels, that's the only Jaguar I'd love to own, the modern versions just don't hit the spot.

If I'd worked harder at school I'd have one of these (assuming you mean a mk2). Always liked the idea of a light blue one to match my dad's e-type.

Then again I also think the first generation xk8 is one of the best looking cars of the last 30yrs. And SWMBO really wants an XK....

An f-type wouldn't go amiss either. ;D

I enjoyed a test drive of both the rear driven and all wheel drive version. Both with the 5.0SC V8 lump. >:D

The 2 wheel drive car was more scary. 8)

I believe Mark DTM owns ( or has access to) the 3.0 V6 variant. :y

I'm not sure who will buy the new jags when they become available to the public.

Jag CEO made it clear they have no interest in 'old' Jag owners who are predominately white gammon hetrosexuals with bigoted views, people who believe there are just two genders.

Presumably 'new' Jags will be sold exclusively the the LGBTQ community which includes ladies sporting a length. :)

Not the largest of markets for potential sales.

Though i'm not a fan of light interiors, that Tig, looks very nice. :y
If you are prepared to put the effort in to keep a light leather interior clean, they always look really nice IMHO.

That's why I always opt for dark interiors ;D

I would have preferred a black interior, but I got to the stage where I just needed a car.  ::)

This one popped up on Autotrader on Thursday night and in the pics looked like it was parked on the drive of a very nice house (It was!), had under 100,000 miles, had FSH, was fairly local and was at a reasonable price. So I got the train to see it on Friday, bought it and carried on to Scotland.  :y

Too be honest when you're sat it it looking out of the windscreen, you don't notice the interior anyway.  :)

How's the ride Tig?  I found later 3 and 5 series a bit too hard, and caused some discomfort in my back (which is buggered in 2 places anyway, not helping)

Guessing not causing you any issues after a run back from Scotland?

It's certainly a harder firmer ride than my old Mondeo, but not uncomfortably so.  :y

I think my Mondeo was a taxi in it's former life and had a fat bastid sat in it for hours on end, as the driver's seat is like a favourite saggy old sofa!  ;D

Oil Level is shown on the Idrive and there is also a dipstick on the N57 engine - red on the N/S of the block at the rear.

Oh.. I assumed that the dipstick at the N/S rear is for the gearbox, as it dives towards the rear and the gearbox.  :-\

There's nothing in the manual about that dipstick either.  ::)

Ot probably only reads the oil level when cold. Once running/hot the level will be very different.

The iDrive only reads the oil level when the engine is running for some reason.  :-\

Maybe it actually reads the oil pressure and calculates the oil level from that?  ???
