[Healeys] Anyone looking for a Jaguar Mk2 project?

[Patrick & Caroline Quinn]

G’day

 

I have had the pleasure of owning two Jaguar Mk2s in my motoring life. The first was a 2.4 which was nice but a little lacking in power and the second was a 3.8 with a Jaguar 4-speed and overdrive. The Jaguar gearbox is infinitely better than the Moss box and a delight to use.

 

The Mk2 itself is an absolute pain in the arse to work on and you could say that if a spanner fitted it was surely a design fault.

 

For instance the workshop manual states that to remove the battery, first remove the bonnet. 

 

My time with Jaguars is what convinced me to have a modern car as an everyday. Still a delight to drive and we managed to fit four kids including a pram into it.
