What a beautiful top down day!I hope you had the chance to get your cat out and enjoy it.It was just as beautiful at the Champagne British Car Show two weeks ago.Jaguar was the featured Mark and there was a very nice turnout of modern Jaguars.Unfortunately the classic Jaguar participation was light.Several of our club members took home trophies although with no competition in the early sedans mine was a bit of a participation trophy.
This month we welcome new member Janice Swanson from Palatine with her 2003 XJ8.Be sure to welcome her at the next event you attend.
Speaking of attending events, there is still time to get on the Yerkes Observatory and Gimmick Rally this Saturday.But hurry!
In July we have one of the most significant events on the club calendar, the IJC Concours at St. James Farm Park.Come and compete or just display your car and enjoy the Jaguars, the picnic, and the atmosphere.
I've had a flurry of contacts from folks looking to sell their Jaguars.If you are interested in a Red 1990 XJS, a Black 1985 XJ6, or a Topaz 2003 XJ8, or maybe you need some parts for a 63 3.8 E type check out the For Sale on the website or just give me a call.
Speaking of out of the blue contacts.I had a lady from Minnesota contact me who has driving an E type on her bucket list. She even said she would compensate the owner for the experience.Any E type owners interested?
I hope to see all of you at an event this year,
Ken
