Brilliant go over mate. Great content and the camera man’s back n forth gave a very real interaction, they’re the kind of questions I’d ask. Keep em coming mate! Fancy doing the x358 2.7d? Asking for my sakes 😂

Hopefully this video will draw more attention to the channel! Thanks for the tour around the car, Tom!

Looking forward to this series!

Tom, you're still a legend mate. I reckon the lads should have given you the car for all the help you've given them. You did a great walk around but you should have spent time with it under the hoist. I hope you do more walk -thru videos like these in the future. I'm actually interested what you've done to the white E-Type that was slightly off camera.

Subbed because Tom rocks!

Love the video Tom. Like a grown up Autoalex 😉

Tom: the seat adjustment problem is not the motor! It's the buttons! I had the same problem on my X350 and I just rewired the motor to a switch to a button I'm not using and it works! And after a few weeks I have to say: I like it more than it would be original! (I'm using the up/down button for the front lifter of the seat to adjust the back of the seat and I love it now) Down moves the back down, lifting up moves the back up! It's unbelievable nice!

Really looking forward to the next episode, hope the restoration goes well.

Hi Tom, Banana 🍌 thanks for mentioning my finger on the pod cast. it's just a slight error it was MB that took me to the hospital, not Meg, but it was 20 yrs ago. Brings back memories XK100s.

I bought my 2000 XKR back in 2020 from California. Was looking for one with the R package but they are rare, so mine has the std brakes, seats and 18" wheels. Since then I have gone through the standard faults: Front springs and bushings, hydraulic hoses for the convertible top and timing chain and tensioners.

Like these type of videos 👌

Hi Tom, Really pleased you have taken the plunge to start your own channel! Subscribed and looking forward to your videos 👏 Can I ask, I've noticed your watch and really like it and was wondering if you could tell me what it is please 😊

Thanks, you really know your Jags. I had an XK8 once as a company car, yes, I was the boss, but did not dare use it when visiting customers. It was a very nice car.

Looks in that picture so much better with orange indicators I kept my 328i owned for 20 years orange indicators Many people clear them looks wrong now for the period

this is great Tom. Now I know who to come to for by next Jag. Had a 1998 XKR Convertible. No rust issues. Electrics was the achilles. Then a 1999 XJ8. Beautiful looking. all extras. BUT rust killed it. literally. But am smitten. I want one that’s SORTED. from somebody I can trust. XJR with sun roof ULEZ compliant.

Top tip on the key fobs: there’s a fellow in Taiwan that matches S-type-style flip key fobs with the correct 8-row Tibbe key blade for the X100 and sells them on eBay. I have one as the main key for my 2001 XKR coupe. Only caveat is that I’m not sure if there’s differences between my US-market security electronics and what you’d have in the UK.

We have a 2000 XKR coupe that was sold new with the R-Performance package. A previous owner had it badged XKRR. It has been quite reliable & we have undertaken long insterstate trips in it where it has shone. Recently we lost drive under acceleration. My husband thought he had solved the problem by adding about 500ml of transmission fluid that restored drive but the fault has returned with a code showing a mismatch with the input/output figures so its booked in to have the box removed & sorted. It will be very interesting to see what develops with your XKR & how you address any issues.

Would love a buyers guide to the aluminium XK cars which Im considering for my next car. I wish I’d had a buyers guide before buying my XJ.

When Tom was talking about the side marker, it was like the lady from Tom & Jerry. 😂

Good luck Tom

Love the X100 chassis. Tom kindly sentenced my black xk8 coupe to death for rust! Luckily I had the BBS wheels that finally got near £2k for. Bought a 996 in the meantime as can’t find a non rusty one!

I want to know what you’re going to do with that Daimler Jaguar,my Dad had one and I loved it 😊

Pity the later models have the sat nav screen. the 3 dials are way classier..

Filmed a 53 plate coupé in an almost matching spec in South Wales

Well done for ditching the monkeys and look forward to seeing more great stuff from you and your team.

Great video Tom, can't beat watching and listening to an actual expert, rather than idiots just winging it and doing botch jobs talking nonsense. Looking forward to more.

I love my 03 XKR. Things wrong: driver's head rest won't adjust - no issue really. Since purchasing, the CD changer in the boot has stopped working. Apparently that's common. There are people one can send them to for a rebuild. Doesn't seem worth it at this time. Everything else is great.

Nice video! But if you have someone having a conversation with the presenter that person should be in front of the camera aswell. It becomes weird with this disembodied voice that kind of interrupts the presenter and comes of as a "backseat" driver almost. If he would have been in front of the camera it would have been totally fine. Edit the cameraman makes interesting comments and interactions but it does not work if he is behind the camera.

Great information video. Does drag a bit, though.

So in summary, people in Monaco have money, but prefer spending it on cocaine and hookers rather than car maintenance. Seems fair... Good video Tom - looking forward to part 2!

Didn’t they get given this car for nothing?

When you realise the interior you spilled beer all over is worth thousands ...
