The story so far,
this car has been purchased for mainly business use with a planned
18,000miles per year and some family duties...
It has covered 154,000 miles with full Jaguar main agent service
history. The previous owner has maintained the vechicle very well
it has had new front and rear discs & pads, radiator & intercooler,
along with new zenon headlights.
Both rear wishbones have also been replaced recently. The car
is in excellent condition and drives beautifully. Its like driving a
sofa, very comfortable and responsive.
Firstly, we have replaced the air filter with a K&N free flow filter,
added Activ8 friction reducer and applied Forte diesel injector cleaner,
the car was previously returning 24mpg, it is now returning 30mpg.
We have plans to give the car a power run to see what are the current
power and touque readings, we will also see how high we can get the
mpg numbers in real day to day driving...
Here is the famous clip from Top Gear where Clarkson takes
the S type round Nurburgring to see if he can break the 10min lap,
not easy....
Forward to 41mins 10sec.....
