Fellow BC listers

I often go to Jags on the Island and the May All British in Vancouver.

No surprise: it doesn't have much to do with where the populations centres are - it has to do with where the Jaguars are! And there are more Jaguars in the Victoria/Vancouver area than anywhere else in BC (and as many in Victoria as in Vancouver!).
For all BC owners - and those in Washington and Oregon: please put Jaguars on the Island on your calendars for 2014 - this is the largest Jaguar show in North America - your car wants to be on the field: July 25-27. I'll post more information as the event comes near but there will be details on the website of the Jaguar Car Club of Victoria: jaguarcarclub.ca

GM - Yes, the ol`girl was container bound across the Pacific to the Left coast. It was my daily driver when I was there. At the time it worked out to only be about $1500 to ship the car with our home contents.
Here it is strictly for pleasure with collector plates. I`m looking at doing it again with a Land Rover Defender when I put together a few $$$ which I should have bought instead of the Pathfinder.

The only way to go is overseas. Look up what Defenders are going for in North America. Here's one for about $12k plus shipping in the UK...

The obvious solution is for you and the missus to each bring a car!

Reliable non-dealer service in Vancouver for 2005 X-Type
Hello Everyone:
My car is a 2005 X-Type Sportwagon 3.0l that has 180,000km. I am at the point where I need some finnicky repairs...some rear end shock work (burning up inside of rear tires). Elecgtrical stuff from malfunctioning back-up sensor, speaker problem, power seat movement etc.
Who do you recommend? Most work I get done at MCL but for this I am thinking I will try an independant and someone that doesn't mind a laundry list of little things and wants to make them all work again.
I also need a new key. I only have one and it does not funtion to oepn the power locks, tailgate, emerg light. Any ideas....
Thanks for your opinions on a service providor in Vancouver or Okanagan BC

Nigel,
I'd try starting a whole new thread. This part of Canada is pretty quiet on the forum.
Check out this thread, it had some recommendations- https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/c...s-30561/page7/
