Classic Marque
Classic Marque is the official magazine of the Jaguar Drivers Club of
South Australia.
The magazine is produced calendar
monthly with the exception of January.
The Deadline for all copy is the last
Tuesday of each month.
The Editor reserves the right to accept, reject or modify content submitted for publication.
The opinions/views expressed in published articles are wholly those of the
respective authors, and are not necessarily those of Jaguar, the Editor,
the Club, or the Members.
Advertisers and sponsors who place
advertisements in the magazine do so
because they value their association
with the JDCSA. Placement of these
advertisements should not necessarily
be taken to mean the club endorses
the services offered.
Cover Story
A photo taken at The British Classic Tour at Victor Harbor on Sunday 4th May. A great day, beautiful weather, good food
and 30 Jaguars present on the day. JDCSA was well represented with more than 40 members in attendance. This event
has now been run for three years and gets bigger and better each year. Congratulations to the Historic Motor Car Club of
Victor Harbor.

From Tom Brindle
Jag Day advertising already? Well yes because we really
are working hard to make this a great day for all.
As coordinator of the organising committee I am grateful for
the support of the committee members. Julian Lugg, Ron
Palmer, Doug Tilley, Steve Arthur, Bruce Fletcher and Malcolm Adamson.
At our first meeting we felt important to first clarify just what
was the aim of this day and what we wished to achieve on
the day. It was agreed the aims are:
1.To promote fellowship within the club by having a day out
where club members are encouraged to
proudly display
their cars and enjoy other member’s cars.
2. To promote the Jaguar Marque, and share the
passion members have for the Jaguar Marque.
3. To promote the club to the wider public.
It is important that every member feels this is their day and
that all cars regardless of model, age or condition are welcome. This is not a concours!
An innovation this year is to combine our Annual Charity
Day, CATS & CANS with Jag Day and we hope everyone
will get into the spirit of the day, not only enjoying our cars
but contributing to the needs of some people less fortunate
than ourselves. There will more publicity on this later.
I hope you enjoy this edition of Classic Marque and remind
you I am still looking for an assistant editor to back me up if
I am away.
Please be aware that this month the copy deadline for the
July Classic Marque will be a week earlier than usual due to
an interstate trip by the editor.
Philip Prior Editor
NEW DEADLINE for July edition of Classic Marque
will be TUESDAY 17th JUNE

Workshop Book Acquisition:
“Jaguar 3.4 and 3.8 ‘S’ Models Service Manual, issued by
Jaguar Cars Ltd., Coventry, England.
This Jaguar service manual has recently been donated to
the Club by Mrs Maxine Lill and accordingly, the Club is very
appreciative of this kind gesture. The book belonged to her
late husband Mr. Peter Lill and she thought it would be useful for it to be retained by the Club for Members to access
through the Club’s Library. Mrs. Lill and her late husband
owned a 1964 3.8 S Model Jaguar for 17 years and she has
many fond memories of the trips taken in the car (She also
remarked how she rather liked the sound of the exhaust
note too!). The car was subsequently sold some years ago
and had the number plate SA 7082. Mrs Lill wondered
whether anyone in the Club may know of its whereabouts
for sentimental reasons (please see photo of car taken
some years ago). If any member is aware of the current
owner of the car or has any information that they may wish
to pass on about the car; could they please let me know
(83870051 or email: [email protected]).
Parts and Service Manuals Acquisition:
XJ6 (XJ40) 4.0 litre 1990 – 1994, Parts and Service Manual
(DVD format).
A friend of Peter Holland, namely Mr Richard Bowen from
Victoria, has kindly donated the above DVD produced by
Jaguar Heritage. The Club wishes to thank Mr Bowen for
the DVD, which will be particularly useful in this format and
also to Peter for passing it on to the library for Club Members to borrow.
“Nobody knows” (or do some Members know?)
Segment!! :
When Jaguar introduced their new medium-sized saloon in
September 1955, people discovered that there was a car
that could convey them as fast from door to door as the traditional train and in as much comfort. These new Jaguars
became known as “the businessman’s express” (Bank robbers found them equally appealing, because of their apparent performance!!). In 1959 this saloon was significantly developed and became a huge seller and was also taken up
by the British Police Force. The cars of course, were the
Mark 1 and Mark 2 compacts.
If you want to read more about these remarkable decades of
the 1950’s and 1960’s, when Jaguar produced the XK 120,
XK140, XK 150, the D-Type, the E-Type, the Mark 1 and 2
and the Xj6, Members can read all about it in this easily
readable book written by Nigel Thorley – “Jaguar” (number
175), available in the Library.
..........a good read in a warm cosy chair by the heater or log
fire with a glass of something special within arm’s reach
( perhaps even a foot stool as well), will keep the coming
winter chills away!!
By the way, I hope you have trained your pooch to bring you
your slippers over to you!

PRESIDENT’S REPORT
Hello fellow Jaguar owners,
The weather has been kind to us over the last month or two.
Hopefully it continues, especially for those who like to put
the roof down.
We are doing a review of our Regalia and want to select a
range that we can promote in the Classic Marque with
online ordering as well as sample stock at meetings. We
are looking at options of a Club Logo, Register Logo’s and
the Jaguar Logo. If you would like to see a particular item
of clothing included in this line, please either advise Dave
Bicknell or myself.
I would like to thank Ron Palmer for stepping in at late notice before our May Meeting and giving us an interesting
look into his trip to the National Rally. There certainly were
some magnificent vehicles on display. It sounds like the
National Rally in Tasmania might be the one to plan for in
the calendar/budget for next year. It would be great to see
a large group of South Australians at the event.
Please let me know if you have any suggestions for guest
speakers at future meetings. This format has received positive feedback and we are keen to maintain the interest.
Tickets are now on sale for our Annual Dinner Dance. Tickets are limited so contact Geoff & Marg Thomas or Daphne
Charman for tickets . This event is growing each year and I
am sure it will be a fantastic night.
Hope to see you at the General Meeting.

WILL YOU RISK A
HEAVY FINE AND
CANCELLATION OF YOUR
HISTORIC REGISTRATION?
Inspection requirements for Historic Registrations
have changed as most will be well aware.
It is now the owners responsibility to have their
historically registered vehicle inspected every
three years in addition to the signing of a Statutory
Declaration annually.
This means that by June 2015 you do need to have your
vehicle inspected by one of the club’s authorised inspectors.
The inspector will sign your log book to indicate that you
have complied with this requirement.
This is a very simple inspection and can be done at regular
club outings by arrangement with one of our authorised inspectors. Each Register has appointed inspectors and a list
is supplied below for your convenience. It will be helpful if
this is not left to the last minute putting extra burden on
our willing inspectors.

Jaguar and celebs

Amazingly, Mk2 Jaguar prices are in the doldrums, despite rapid rises in other examples of the marque, classic experts are reporting.
A good, useable 2.4 Mk2 can still be bought for £10,000 or
less and even the more desirable 3.8 can be picked up for
£25,000.
Even the once largely overlooked Mk1 Jaguar has been
more in demand of late, partly, says Jaguar Enthusiasts’
Club general manager Graham Searle, because of this
car’s eligibility for historic motorsport.
He says: “It is surprising that Mk2s have not taken off in
price when we have seen E-types go through the roof. You
do see Mk2s advertised at below £20,000 – and 2.4s below
the £10,000 mark.
“I think the explanation is that there has been a lot of emphasis on Jaguar sports cars of late – though, having said
that, a couple of Series I XJ6s have been sold for £27,000.”
Jaguar Drivers Club Mk2 Jaguar Registrar Terry Birt agrees
Mk2s have not reached the prices they did at the peak of
the last classic car boom, but prices are going up.
“The Mk2 is excellent value for money and a great car
to own, and people will pay a lot for the best examples.
Cars you can use and enjoy can be bought for a lot less
though.”
Terry puts a useable 3.8 at around £25,000.
Richard White, boss of Hertfordshire-based Flying Cat Engineering, adds:
“It depends on condition of the car, and there are a lot
of rogue cars out there. We certainly haven’t seen the
50% price rises there have been on the E-type over the
past three years but there is a small increase in demand for Mk2s of late, though less so for the 2.4, which
you could still get a reasonable example for £10,000 or
£6000-£7000 for one needing work.”

A host of celebrities will take to the wheel of Jaguar Ctypes, D-types and XKs at next month’s Mille Miglia.
The Italian event will see the likes of chat show host Jay
Leno, ex-F1 star Martin Brundle and AC/DC lead singer Brian Johnson tackle the 1000 mile route.
Richard Agnew, Jaguar Global PR Director said: “Jaguar
proved its technical and performance credentials on the
Mille Miglia and we have curated a fantastic line-up of authentic Jaguar sports cars for this year’s celebration.”
Brian Johnson will co-drive a C-type with Belgian singersongwriter Milow, while Martin Brundle and Bruno Senna
(Ayrton’s nephew) will share the famous ‘Long Nose’ Dtype. An ex-Sir James Scott-Douglas 1951 Jaguar XK 120
roadster that was part of the Ecurie Ecosse team will be
piloted by American chat show legend Jay Leno.
Multi-award winning actors Jeremy Irons will drive another
Jaguar XK120 and an ex-Sir Stirling Moss XK120 Coupe will
be piloted by Mike Cross, Jaguar’s Vehicle Integrity Chief
Engineer.
Jaguar has a rich history in the Mille Miglia, especially with
the XK120. Leslie Johnson scored a fifth place in 1950,
making the XK the highest placed production car. It was
also Jaguar’s best ever finish. Another milestone was Sir
Stirling Moss tackling the Brescia-based event in 1952
alongside Norman Dewis in a C-type equipped with the first
ever disc-brakes to be used in competition. The car retired
with steering damage, but the future of braking was set.

Jaguar Ranked Best
Premium Manufacturer in
Driver Power Survey
IN BRIEF
 Jaguar named best premium brand car manufacturer by
owners in Driver Power survey
 Jaguar drivers eulogise about their car's ease of driving,
ride quality, performance and in-car technology
 More than 46,000 car owners took part in the customer
satisfaction survey
IN DETAIL
(Whitley, Coventry - 30/04/14). Jaguar has been ranked
the best premium car brand in the influential Driver Power
manufacturer league table. The 2014 edition of the Auto
Express-supported customer satisfaction survey saw the
British luxury and sports car marque's score increase by
three per cent year-on-year to 89.34, as Jaguar owners
gave glowing feedback on every aspect of their car.
For the third year running, Jaguar cars were praised for offering the best ride quality and ease of driving of cars from
any brand. On top of this, an impressive three Jaguar prod-
The Lightweight
E-Type is Reborn

Jaguar is to build six brand new 'Lightweight' E-types the 'missing' six Lightweights that were never built from the
intended 18-car series

Jaguar's first ever 're-creation' project, the all-aluminium
cars will be assigned the six remaining chassis numbers
which were originally allocated in 1963

All six vehicles will be built as perfect reproductions and
to the exact specifications of the original 12 cars first produced in 1963
The first new Lightweight E-type will make its public debut
later this summer. Further information will be released at
that point
ucts finished in the top five performance cars - with the XK
topping the chart and receiving a Driver Power Award for
Best Performance. Jaguar cars were also rated secondbest for in-car technology.
Auto Express Editor-in-Chief Steve Fowler said: "Jaguar
has moved up the Driver Power rankings in 2014 and as a
result becomes the highest-ranked premium brand in the
survey. Much of that is down to the way a Jaguar car drives
- owners love their cars' performance, ride and handling. If
Jaguar continues to show improvements at this rate, it could
top our survey next year."
Success in the 2014 edition of the Driver Power survey follows a similar result in last year's JD Power survey, where
Jaguar was named the best manufacturer. It means Jaguar
is now rated as the best premium brand by the two biggest
motoring satisfaction surveys in the country.
Jeremy Hicks, Jaguar Land Rover UK Managing Director,
said: "The priority at Jaguar is to put the customer first - it's
at the forefront of our minds with every car we produce. So
we're incredibly proud to be so highly rated by the people
who buy our cars. With a series of truly exciting products in
the pipeline - which will be based on our new advanced aluminium architecture - we're confident that we can continue
to meet and exceed the desires of UK car buyers for many
years to come."
1964, the remaining six designated chassis numbers having
lain dormant, until now.
The new cars will be hand-built in-house by Jaguar's finest
craftsmen. Each car will be constructed to the exact specifications of their original 1960s forebears - including the 3.8litre straight-six engine.
The Lightweight carried approximately 114kg (250lb) less
weight than a standard E-type, thanks to its all-aluminium
body and engine block, a lack of interior trim and exterior
chrome work and a host of further weight-saving features
including lightweight, hand-operated side windows.
Jaguar expects a high demand for the six Lightweight Etypes. Established Jaguar collectors, especially those with
historic race car interests, will be prioritised amongst those
potential customers who express interest.
14 MAY, 2014 - Jaguar is to
build six perfect reproductions
of the original, race-bred Lightweight E-type that was created
in 1963. The new cars are the
'missing' six vehicles from
Jaguar's Lightweight E-type
project, which originally started
in February 1963 with the objective of building 18 'Special
GT E-type Cars'.
Only 12 of the aluminium bodied Lightweight E-types were
eventually built, the last in

On Friday the 16th of May, members of the XJ,
420G, Mk 10 Register ventured to the Adelaide
Show grounds to see Co-Opera’s production of
Giacomo Puccini’s MADAMA BUTTERFLY.
The women dressed in their finest and the men in
bow ties and tux, we were there to see our own
(we’re claiming her, as she has sung at several of
our Register meetings) Grace Bawden, performing the lead role as Cio Cio San in her operatic
debut.
The sell out audience got into the mood before
the performance with an incredible array of gourmet food and drinks. The excitement was obviously getting to our members as the odd glass of
red was accidently spilt.
When the orchestra began the proceedings, you
could hear a pin drop and when ‘our Grace’ began to sing, the jaws dropped and the goose
bumps appeared.
In only a few seconds you realise why Grace has
been accepted into the No 1 Operatic School in
the world, the prestigious Centro Universale del
Bel Cantro where she will study at the La Scuola
Dell’ Opera Italiana.
After receiving a standing ovation at the end of
the Opera, Grace quickly changed and came and
had her photo taken with us. She said the night
had been wonderful for her, but she is looking forward to the XJ 420G Mk 10 Register Xmas Dinner at the German Club on the 5th of December.

World's fastest car to start after 100 years
The world’s fastest car in 1911 is to make its first run at
this year’s Goodwood Festival of Speed after lying
dormant for 100 years.
Just two Fiat S76 models were built by the Italian manufacturer, with the sole intention of snatching the world record
for the flying kilometre and mile away from German Benzes.
They were fitted with enormous 28.5-litre engines, which
allowed one of them to achieve 135mph at Ostend in Belgium. However, because it couldn’t complete a return run
within an hour, it wasn’t officially recognised as a record.
“…… eventually ended up in Australia where it was
heavily modified. Current owner Duncan Pittaway
acquired the rolling chassis back in 2003 and reunited
it with the engine from the lost S76….”
15
One S76 was dismantled after the First World War, but the
other was purchased by a Russian aristocrat and eventually
ended up in Australia where it was heavily modified. Current
owner Duncan Pittaway acquired the rolling chassis back in
2003 and reunited it with the engine from the lost S76.
The S76 4-cylinder motor has a bore of 71/2in (the size of a
dinner plate) and stroke of 927/32in; output was 300hp at
1800rpm, with torque rated at 2000lb.ft. Rumours still circulate that the engine is from an airship, compounded by the
fact that a Fiat airship engine did later use the same bore
and stroke, but this was of a different design.
The unofficial record breaker has spent the last ten years
being restored to its 1911 spec, with as many original components as possible being salvaged. “After restoring a Bugatti T35, I was looking for a new challenge and the S76,
which is one of the more maligned cars of its generation,
fitted the bill nicely,” said Duncan.
“All of the original S76 components that have survived have
been restored, from the chassis and engine down to the
suspension, axles, pedals, steering box etc., with the gearbox, radiator and bodywork being created using the original
Fiat drawings.
“As the last and largest of the huge-engined Edwardian
monsters, it should be sensational to see.”
Duncan himself will drive the Fiat S76 up the hill at the Festival, bringing to a close its century of competitive inactivity.
The popular event takes place from 26-29 June, but tickets
usually sell out well before.

A Telephone Survey
Last month, a world-wide telephone survey was conducted by the UN.
The only question asked was:"Would you please give your honest
opinion about possible solutions to the
food shortage in the rest of the world?"
*The survey was a complete failure because:*
In Eastern Europe they didn't know what "honest" meant.
In Western Europe they didn't know what "shortage" meant.
In Africa they didn't know what "food" meant.
In China they didn't know what "opinion" meant.
In the Middle East they didn't know what "solution" meant.
In South America they didn't know what "please" meant.
In the USA they didn't know what "the rest of the world"
meant.
And in Australia, New Zealand and Britain everyone hung
up as soon as they heard the Indian accent.
Men are like old car tires. Balding, full of hot air,
and it never hurts to have a spare.
Old is Great
An old Woman was asked, "At your ripe age, what would
you prefer to get : Parkinsons or Alzheimers?"
The wise one answered, "Definitely Parkinsons - Better to
spill half my wine than to forget where I keep the bottle."
And so say all of us!!!

I got invited to a party and was told to dress to kill. Apparently a turban, beard and a backpack wasn't what they had in

A boy asks his granny, 'Have you seen my pills, they were

Little Billy asks his dad for a telly in his room. Dad reluctantly agrees. Next day Billy comes downstairs and asks, 'Dad,

Dad looks horrified and tells Billy all about sex. Billy just sat

what were you watching?' Billy says, 'Wimbledon.'

Stories of cars owned and loved by our members
Bill Browne—Jaguar MK 2 3.8.
My interest in Jaguars started in 1951, my last
year at school, one of my class mates was allowed to drive the family Jag MK IV Drophead
to school on occasions.
WE would pile into the Jag after school and
drive from South Perth over the Causeway and
down St Georges Terrace—pure luxury.
Over the years I have yearned to own a Mark 2
and after I retired a 1955 Twin Matchless Motor Cycle. When that was completed, Margaret
decided I needed another project to keep me
out of her hair and so the search for a suitable
Jag began.
After driving and looking at many Mark 2s we
finally found this one that was beaytifully restored inside and outside but needed some
TLC underneath.
The car was originally owned by a woman living in Heidelberg, Victoria and was acquired by
Max Gransden who lived at Brighton, Victoria
and then at Somerton Park South Australia.
Max did a lot of restoration and eventually sold
it to Trevor Merkel of Happy Valley, South Australia.
18
After it changed hands a couple more times we
eventually purchased our pride and joy.
Trevor Merkel contacted us some time later to
see if we would like the history file with all receipts dating back to the 1980’s which we were
very pleased to have.
The car has been in the Jaguar Car Club of Victoria and also the Sporting Car Club of SA.
Bill and Margaret also own a lovely S TYPE

Sir Jack Brabham AO
OBE 1926 – 2014
We were all saddened by the news that Australia’s
greatest racing driver, Sir Jack Brabham, passed
away recently. He was 88.
The Brabham name is synonymous with Grand
Prix racing and always will be. Evidence of the
enormity of Sir Jack’s achievements is that they
remain unmatched to this day - and most likely
never will be.
The triple world champion is the only Formula
One driver to have won a world title in a car of his
own construction – the Repco V8-powered BT19
– which he drove to victory in 1966. And he was
also the first driver in history to be knighted for his
services to motor sport.
Sir Jack contested 126 Grands Prix from 1955 to
1970, taking 14 wins and 13 pole positions on his
way to three Formula One World Drivers’ Championships in 1959 and 1960 (driving Coopers)
and 1966 (Brabham).
sive world championship with Kiwi Denny Hulme driving the
team’s latest BT20. The Brabham team’s winning engines
were also designed and built in Australia by Repco, under
the brilliant Phil Irving and Frank Hallam.
In addition to his prolific racing achievements, Jack was
awarded Australian of the Year in 1966, the Order of the
British Empire in 1966 and knighted for his services to motor
sport in 1978 along with numerous other awards in recognition of his extraordinary career.
He also won the Formula One World Constructors Championship in 1966 and again in 1967,
when the Brabham team won its second succes-

…….A Visit to Point Turton
Nine couples in six Jaguars and three other vehicles
braved the wild weather on the first Friday in May to travel
to Point Turton for the XK, 789 Register weekend at the bottom
end of Yorke Peninsula.
Drivers and passengers fuelled up at Port Wakefield and Minlaton bakery and
chocolate shop on the way, setting the scene for the rest of the weekend.
The weather improved on Saturday morning and we went to Innes National Park via
Marion Bay Tavern, stopping at many scenic spots along the way and returning via Corny
Point. Saturday evening dinner was a short drive to the Inland Sea Restaurant. Sunday morning we
visited Bublacowie Military Museum which has an interesting collection of vehicles and militaria.
Thanks to Wendy and Onslow for giving us all a most enjoyable weekend.
