It's a good job it looks nice. My 3.0 V6 manual Jaguar XType is so worth saving, it's going to be a lovely car but this has become a big restoration project over almost a year now, getting bits together, fixing years of neglect and upgrading bits as we go along. A huge thanks goes to the mechanical know how of my best pal Barry Willson , my friend Firat Aydog for supplying me with Arden parts and tonnes of interior pieces that he's had lying around from projects and breakers. I've bought a lot of parts including Eibach springs, Bilstein sports dampers, new suspension components, not to mention my Cranberry interior and found that with so many Jags being stripped for parts there is pretty much everything I need to make this a unique and fun car to own. My local Jaguar specialist have also helped me with some big jobs and given great advice E and E Services MK Ltd
It's still not sorted and I have new parts arriving in the week. Some will say why bother on this car, but we will win though and this car will have another crack at life. It deserves it.
