#1 Series 1 service

Post by Tonymidds » Thu Feb 02, 2023 8:18 pm

Hello all,

New to this forum and I’ve had a quick scan through to see if there was much information of approved or recommended people to service an E-type, but I couldn’t seem to find anything. My late father’s series 1 E-type is gathering dust in Somerset and wondered if anyone has a recommendations of where we could get it serviced?

Many thanks in advance,

Anthony

Is Swallows Jaguar in Bristol too far for you? They have experience of all Jaguars, including E Types.

It very much depends how long the thing was 'gathering dust' to what kind of service is required and whether the car is rolling or driveable for the type of work or re-commissioning required.

I'm in Somerset and although I do most of the work on my car, I have some options of people sympathetic to old Jaguar cars. It depends on what it needs.

Send me a message if you think I can be if help. I'm near to Ilminster.

Best wishes, Chris
