I noticed that & fancied popping along in Dad's XJ-S, but re-arranged football's knocked that idea on the head. Pity.

Well the weather forecast for tomorrow looks like sunny intervals, might just give the Ult a last run out before starting the winter strip down, just hope I can get in as this seems to be getting very popular.

What a great visit. Some very beutiful machinery there. Saw lots of familiar faces and it was great to catch up. A walk round the car park was also very rewarding, a great variety of cars.

If Dereck or any of the guys from JD are reading this thanks for the opportunity to visit your fabulous facility.thumbup

As above - thanks to JD for having us. An amazing selection of cars both for sale, and being fettled. Can't think of the last time I visited a garage that had such a mouthwatering set of cars being worked on, then TUCKED AWAY at the back of the garage are 2 (+ 1 chassis) Silk Cut group C Jags!!! Awesome.

lots of thanks to everyone at JD, such a friendly and passionate team. Been to Morrisons and Focus virtually every week for the past 2 years and no idea such an amazine outfit was just round the back!!

So many aching beautiful and rare cars, being local I hope to become a customer one day!!

I'll certainly look out for the next open day.

Looks like you had a great day out.

In Ken's photos - the photo following the 246GT Dino - looks like an XJ13, now that is one beautiful car.
