We haven't made a Jag car for eight months, the new ones are on the proto line at the moment

It's a funny way of going about things if you ask me. 

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.

Trains are still highly efficient ways of quickly moving lots of people in/out/between cities. They're nearly as good for moving heavy, bulky loads between fixed points - like fuel for power stations.

Which is why trains sort of almost work for the South East, assuming you want to go to London.

They really don't work anywhere else, and outside of London's Tube system, are not financially viable to users or the taxpayer.

That is madness. Society should be pushing for it to be easier to travel by train or indeed be easier to travel.

Drop off charges boil my P1ss. Years ago, my brother had to pay a couple of quid to pick me up at Leeds airport or £5 if he came in his van. He revolted and made me walk out of the airport. Of course now red lines everywhere. Contrast with Spain. Free to drop off at Malaga airport in short  stay if you take less than ten minutes. You can use the same to pick up if you wait off site and the person messages you.


The train companies often don't help, as parking at Chiltern stations is now a tenner a day, and Banbury station has closed it's drop off point to private vehicles, so anyone wanting to use the train from there now has to use a taxi if not in walking distance.  Fine for drop off is now £40.  So everyone drives to London now.

Another 'bleeding obvious' headline from the Sun. If you stop building any sort of stuff then people can't buy it.

Zackly.

The 'them' in my previous post was the press rather than Jaaag

Use 3.2 manifolds.

The pump/wiring can potentially be relocated either out of sight or cut right back with a suitable resistor

In a perfect world, freight would travel by rail and trucks banished from the roads, other than smaller trucks to do local runs from train stations to delivery depots.
People who cant pass a test to prove they are capable of driving to a reasonably high standard forced to take trains and taxis because they are banned from the roads.
Then, nice clear roads with high standards of driving, and no motorway speed limits for the rest of us.
We can but dream. 

Exactly what I experienced driving through Germany on Sunday, in fact.

Stripped the 3.0 for the project.

Currently mid work and removing SAI system. Rather than using a plumbing fitting on the pipe, can the holes be plugged into the manifold?

Haven't looked closely how it's all attached but just trying to neaten everything up so getting rid of unnecessary bits would be ideal.

Do you always drive to Scotland when you buy a new car?😀

Nah Rae, that's just outside Weymouth, honest.
Though i'm not a fan of light interiors, that Tig, looks very nice.

My car only has one front fan and one rear. I've just done a cold start with the aircon on auto, both fans started immediately. When I switched the aircon off both fans stopped. I presume the rear fan has two speeds as it was not as noisy as the other day, so I think things are working as normal and rear fan will switch to fast (noisier) speed when things warm up.

Certainly sounds like it, in which case, nothing to worry about from a fan perspective
