Hi all, no I live on a farm with lots of storage space for my old cars and bikes, I did an apprenticeship with Jaguar, Rover, Daimler Triumph in the late '70s so I built a full workshop to keep on top of my own cars but I'm always willing to help people help themselves out on the road. I have a restaurant with three rooms above in the village. E type is a series 2 USA version, the picture is confusing but she is standard height, body etc, the only mods back to triple SU's, custom exhaust, T5 box and lotus tail lights.

Hi Q., welcome to the forum. Good looking group of cars. Please post larger pictures so we can have a better look, thanks.

Your location looks great for a stopover if and when I take my E to visit my brother near Beziers.

Good man!

The Jaguar Enthusiasts Club are arranging an event "in the Dordogne region" towards the end of September so a few Jags might be passing your way.

Sounds like you’re close to the Route Napoleon? I have an overnight stay in Chambery before a trip down the Route Napoleon in September then staying at Grasse. Sadly not in the e type but will at least be in a Jag 😊
