Have Your Say . .Have Your Say . .

This is my first edition as your new editor of the Classic Marque. I have to say that I am looking forward to the challenge.

However, let me first pay tribute, on your behalf, to Pete and Kathy Taylor who have done such a great job in the past ensuring this publication is produced every month and on time. If you think about it that has to be the greatest challenge with the possibility of all kinds of things, personal and technical threat-ening to derail the process. I am confident I can rely on Pete and Kathy for back-up as required and to-gether with Tom Herraman as our web master we will do our best to see this magazine continues to play an important role in the life of our club.

So what do we want from this publication?

Firstly, it is a club magazine. That means it is your magazine and should reflect your views and provide the opportunity for you to have your say. To this end I intend implementing a monthly editorial page where some relevant issues and views will be dis-cussed in editorial style. Hopefully this editorial will be the catalyst for others to contribute and have their say via “letters to the editor”. Of course letters to the editor need not be restricted to the subject matter of the editorial and will need to be brief and subject to editorial review and if necessary editorial veto. But don’t be put off, have your say.

Secondly, I believe this magazine should be able to provide some up to date news and views, particu-larly relating to the world of Jaguar cars. Press re-leases from Jaguar, details of interesting Jaguar events nationally and from around the world, as well as historical stories, will all be of significant interest to club members. Of particular importance and in-terest will be reports and photos of recent JDSA register runs and activities. We have seen some great reports recently and keep in mind photos and humour here can ensure interesting reading.

I encourage all members to get involved and submit any information, reports, stories, technical tips or photos that you think will be of interest to other members.

A good club magazine should be like a nice Jaguar car. It should demonstrate quality and style, have plenty of grace and pace, create lots of public interest, it should sound right with a nice burble and above all be very satisfying.

I look forward to your contributions.

Philip Prior (Editor)

Dear JDCSA Members,

I hope you can help. I am looking for a car my father’s uncle owned in Western Australia many years ago. The car was a Jaguar Mk IV 2.5 chassis number 511315 and the WA record shows that it was sold to JRA in SA I don’t know that the car is still in SA but you never know. I am hoping to contact the current owner so I can pass on the original sales docket (dated 29/OCT /1948 )

(If you think you can help Colin in this matter please contact him direct—Editor)

Letters to the Editor by necessity need to be brief, to the point and constructive, in order to be

accepted for publication. Longer articles and submissions are encouraged and will be considered

for publication elsewhere in Classic Marque.

Letters to the Editor

new ideas you may have, things that may be con-cerning you or just simply how you think the Club is travelling. All feedback is good.

The next big day for the Club is the SA Jaguar Day in two weeks’ time. Vice President, Di has been working hard behind the scenes to prepare an enter-taining event, which will allow Jaguar owners to proudly display their cars to the public. We welcome fellow enthusiasts from the JCCC who will help make the day the success it is sure to be. Please bring your car along whether it be restored, a barn find, your daily driver or in pieces on a trailer await-ing restoration. They are all special.

Further down the track, as I have probably men-tioned before, we have the 40th anniversary of the Club to celebrate, 25 July 2013 to be exact. Again, Di is the main driving force behind the planning of celebrations for this milestone in the Club’s history. She has many ideas on her planning sheet and I hope you can support and help her should you “get the tap on the shoulder”!

Finally, I have a personal project that I would like to pursue over the next year----How to grow the Club and ensure its long-term survival.

Suffice to say, members lives are busy and compli-cated as are those of potential new members. We all have competing priorities and it is essential that the Club work hard to provide services that will entice members, current and future, to allocate some of their valuable time to the JDCSA. I will elaborate on these thoughts at a future date.

In the meantime, I look forward to seeing you at the next meeting and beyond. Regards Peter

October 2012

The exciting news to come from the September General Meeting was the election of our new Patron, Ian Webber, AO. A more detailed report and person-al resume of Ian’s achievements and interests ap-pear on the opposite page and on the Club web site. I am hoping that Ian will be able to attend a meeting and other Club events in the not too distant future where you will all be able to meet him on an informal basis. He is a keen car person and will no doubt have a few interesting tales to relate to us about his restoration and business experiences. I am sure you will join me in welcoming Ian to the JDCSA family.

The AGM has come and gone, and whilst Daphne Charman is the only new face on the Committee, there have been minor musical chairs within the Committee. I would like to take this opportunity to welcome Daphne as our new Membership Secre-tary, a position that Daphne will undoubtedly find both interesting and rewarding. It is the front door of the Club and the very first opportunity to meet and welcome visitors and new members to the JDCSA.

One position, Events Coordinator, remains vacant. If you are interested in undertaking this role, please let me know. The Executive has the power to now fill

this position as a casual vacancy.

The Committee looks forward to the challeng-es of the next year with enthusiasm and we of course depend on you, the members to tell us what you want and ex-pect from our Club. Please do not feel shy about talking to a Com-mittee Member about

There was movement at the park - for word had passed around That the Jag club had a run that day, And had gathered at Bonython – a pleasant picnic ground, So the members had gathered to the fray.

All the usual drivers from suburbs near and far Had polished their cars overnight For the guys love a pleasant drive in their beloved car, And the partners tag along doing what is right

There was Evan, who drove his Series 1 and with such pride With Andrea by his side just to keep him in line Steve Arthur, a new member came along - eager for the ride Showing off his Series 2 and it sure does shine

The E Types, were on the day nowhere to be seen A sniff of rain you see and they go to ground The reason is they say, these cars are hard to clean Strange, on English roads they are renowned

However an E Type did arrive, as Ben did not know the rule That E types can’t be driven in the rain The weather on the day as it happened was far from cruel Our mid-week run was bathed in sunshine again

Don and Peggy Morgan are new members - who heard by the way And packed a drink some goodies and a glass An opportunity to get to know some others on the day Their X Type adding some modern class

What’s this a another series 1 makes its debut on a Jaguar run It’s Philip with a grin and Sue was also there Then a little late, a Series 3 arrives, we thought this car was done It was the Evans, John, (little Sophia) and Claire

There was movement once again – so with morning tea complete It was time to fire up the marque Remembering, the road to Cudlee Creek is not for heavy feet But with care we arrived at the wildlife park

Surprise! Some other members had found their way by plan There was, Colin and Marg, and more Already enjoying the park, the Bullocks, Robin and Rosanne And Ben of course with his E Type, we mentioned before

With sausages on the Bar-B-Que - and onions ready peeled It was a fitting time to celebrate I say Unknown to most of us a secret was yet to be revealed It was our President’s sixty sixth birthday! . . . .

. . . .HAPPY BIRTHDAY PETER!!

NEWS ‘n’ NOTES

Coming Events

There is a rumour going around that there will be a special event in Mid January 2013

A one day event, we believe, aimed at

mustering as many XJ Series 1s as possible in one place

Probably taking the format of a Sunday run in the country for lunch somewhere

Obviously we will need to track down the source of this rumour and get full details

to all our Series 1 owners

But for now feel free to spread the rumour as far as possible

Of course all other club members who

don’t have the pleasure of owning a Series 1 XJ are welcome to join in the run

A Few Examples of this Classic Marque - Daimler V8 250 Owned by Club Members

David Davidson

Geoff and Marg Thomas

Noel and Jo Orford

Anita Whiting

A Brief History of the

Daimler V8 250 The first British manufacturer of motorised vehicles was a compa-ny called Daimler, established in 1893. While the first cars were imported from Germany, they had become emphatically British lux-

ury carriages by the Edwardian era, and became the adopted transport for the Royal Family after the First World War. After the Se-

cond World War, management weakness and a somewhat confused and directionless model range brought the company to its knees, and it

was bought by Jaguar in May 1960.

Initially the range remained unchanged, offering as it did models that did not compete directly with the exist-ing offerings from Browns Lane. However attention was drawn back to the marque by Jaguar's release of the Daimler 2 ½ Litre V8 version of the MK 2 launched at Earls Court, October 1962. The 2.5-litre V8, was only thirty inches in length and developing 140bhp @ 5,800 rpm, proved superior to the Jaguar's 2.4-litre six XK unit.

The V8 250 was essentially a Jaguar Mk II hull mated to the 2½ litre V8 used in Daimler's SP250, and the Coventry firm earned accusations of badge engineering, the pundits feeling justified in their predictions of two years earlier. This was largely unfair, however; true, the new Daimler's body and mechanicals were essential-ly Jaguar, but it suited the Daimler mould with characteristically effortless performance matched with easy luxury. The engine was already three years old but, coupled with a Type 35 Borg-Warner automatic gearbox (manual was not available), it could push the modest saloon up to 110mph and return 20mpg over a long journey.

Production continued into 1969, and the model's life drew to an end after just over 17,600 had been manufactured. The price on Launch was £1,785.

How's this for a Formation?

En route to Blackpool, the Jaguar Heritage 90th anni-versary Tour stopped off at BAE System's incredible Warton site. This is the only UK location where the Eu-rofighter Typhoon is built. Pictured are most of the cars that were on the Tour togeth-er with one of the latest Ty-phoons to come off the pro-duction line.

Model: Daimler. 2.5L. V8—Four Door Sedan

Year: 1963.

Owners: Geoff & Margaret Thomas

MR. G.Walkley of North Adelaide purchased this car new on 30th November 1963 from JOUBERTS BRITISH MOTORS of South Melbourne.

After two more owners, a Mr O’Brien. and a Mr D. Wickham, we purchased the car in Febuary1993.

The car came with all the original service & operat-ing books. Since ownership of the car we have completed a bare metal respray in Dorchester Metallic Grey. The interior has been fully refur-bished in Connolly leather, the engine, gear box and suspension have been reconditioned. Power steering has been fitted, and wire wheels and a

wood rim steering wheel have been added.

This is a typical club car and since we have owned the car we have enjoyed touring throughout six states, enjoying Daimler & Jaguar Rallies from Perth to Canberra.

Editor’s Note: Thank you Geoff and Marg, a fitting feature for this edition where we celebrate 50 years of the famous Daimler 250 V8. We now look forward to seeing many other members tell us a little about their cars.

Success for Jaguar Heritage Racing at the Nürburgring!

12 August 2012 The Jaguar Heritage Racing team enjoyed great success in the 40th Nürburgring AvD Old timer Grand Prix from 10-12 August, its line-up of Mk 2, C-type and E-type Jaguars - with drivers Alex Buncombe, Chris Ward and Frank Klaas - recording both outright wins and class victories.

The highlight of the weekend came on Saturday when, after a lights-to-flag victory in the first of two E-type Challenge rounds on the Nürburgring Grand Prix circuit, JHR driver Alex Buncombe then ran straight to the team's C-type for the prestigious one-hour pre-'60/'61 sports and GT car event. Racing again within just a few

minutes as dusk fell, Alex drove brilliantly to a great class win and fifth place overall, the C-type similarly on-song throughout.

Speaking immediately after this intense period of competition, Alex said: "Driving these cars is a real privilege, and the whole team has done a great job. Both the races today were fantastic for me, and everything went exactly as we planned."

Jaguar News

Cat Out of the Bag—Jaguar's New F-type Unveiled Jaguar has released the first official picture of its new F-type ahead of the car's debut at the Paris Motor Show. (29 September—14 October)

Jaguar has issued the first official picture of its Paris Motor Show star and the successor to the legendary E-type, the new F-type.

The image, which has been released by Jaguar after it was leaked on a US website, shows three F-type convertibles displaying a range of colour and wheel options.

Jaguar has confirmed that the rear-wheel-drive F-type will be powered by a supercharged 3.0-litre V6 with 335- or 374bhp. An updated version of the company's supercharged 5.0-litre V8 will also be available, and all engines will be combined with an eight-speed automatic gearbox.

The image shows that the front of the car has stuck with the styling of the C-X16 Coupe Concept that Jaguar displayed at last year's Frankfurt motor show, with a wide grille flanked by twin cooling slats either side.

Prices are yet to be announced, but it is rumoured that the range will start from about £55,000 when the F-type goes on sale in the spring.

FEELING OLD LATELY? (For the Guys!)

Getting old is inevitable—but growing up is optional.

First you forget names, then you forget faces, then you forget to pull your zipper up, then you forget to pull your zipper down.

You know you are getting old when your hairdresser spends more time on your nose, eye brows and ears than on your head.

A not-too-bright but beautiful blonde was driving home one night when she was caught in a terrible storm. The hailstones were as big as golf balls, and her car was dented badly.

Next day at the auto shop, a repairman decided to have a little fun at her expense. "To fix the dents in the body," he said, "drive home, park the car, and when the tailpipe is cool, get down on your knees and blow really hard into the tailpipe, and the dents will pop out.

Later, a girlfriend of the blonde is driving by and sees her friend on her knees, blowing hard into the tail-pipe. She asks what's going on and is told the story. The girlfriend laughs. "Well, duhhh! You need to roll up the windows first, silly!"

Someone at the auto repair shop locked the owner's keys inside his car. Paddy the Irish locksmith was called and while he was working on the driver's-side door lock, the anxious owner walked up and tried the passenger's side door. It opened. Paddy looked up and said. "Yeah, I already got that one."

Near the end of their racing careers, a Jaguar and a Porsche made a pact. The first one to reach racing heaven would let the other know if heaven even had car racing.

As luck would have it, the Porsche was demolished in a fiery wreck. A few days later, it revealed itself to the Jaguar in a vision. "I have some good news and some bad news," the Porsche told the Jaguar. "The good news is that heaven is crazy about auto racing. They have everything here--NASCAR, Indy cars, Formula 1, even Aussie Super V8s”

"So what's the bad news?" the Jaguar asked the deceased Porsche. "The bad news is that you've won the pole position for next Saturday's race."
