    I am sure someone with access to AI could come up with a poem and even a song so we can have our very own “anthem” to sing when we meet up :D

    All warning lights flashing

    Good luck - hopefully this will resolve matters or at least eliminate the battery as being the problem.

    Brooklands Auto Italia 4th May!!

    Little video of me on track in the Strad, courtesy of Midlifecrisis. Held up by the pace car, but you still get to hear the acceleration and gear change :cool:

    Brooklands Auto Italia 4th May!!

    As always it was great day and I put a few more names to faces, the Maserati turn out was spectacular. Track was a little more disappointing than previous years as I was first behind the pace car and he would not let me build gap and give the Strad the beans up the straight. If anyone got any...

    Battery Maintenance

    I have had various “exotic” cars all of which have needed up with completely flat batteries at one stage or another and all have been rescued with a ctech. My Strad is happy o be left on the drive u used for 2-3 weeks with no issue but I tend to put on the trickle if I am leaving any longer...

    What have you done to your Maserati today?

    I know what you mean, it’s been rainy since 8am here, I managed to get mine done on Wednesday and put a cover on, but it will still need some tlc in the morning as the cover leaks and leaves dirty marks.

    I am heading from the same direction, junc 11 will be fine. In my experience Google maps to the Brooklands Museum takes you to the Campbell Gate but just in case (51.3524524, -0.4594010) - there will be a queue whatever time you arrive.

    The good morning thread

    Well that was a wasted morning - good job I could work from the waiting room. So calibration failed, Jaguar are saying they will have to have the car back to remove and refit the windscreen and try again. What a complete pain in the proverbial :mad:

    The good morning thread

    These darn cars are full of safety and driving assist features. There is a camera that looks through the screen that controls some of these and they need calibration after a windscreen change. Personally I would rather not have the features !! but am stuck with them and without calibration the...

    The good morning thread

    Dropped the XJ off at Jaguar dealership to see if they can sort the “recalibration” following a recent windscreen replacement. Auto windscreens first fitted an none OEM screen and calibration failed, went back 3 week late for them to swap that out for an OEM screen but calibration still failed...
