Craig ~ Idyhojo, here. Haven't been in touch since 2013. Still have our '03 X Type, still parked in the garage, still needs a fresh engine. The only major change since our last contact is that I have purchased a replacement engine and am awaiting its arrival. Do not yet know if it is maybe one retrieved from the flood waters and then sold, or if it is really a good motor. My health problems have been dealt with and I'm getting a little better every day, so I thought I would take a flying leap and either conquer the Jaguar engine swap or maybe reduce the size of the problem to several smaller, more bite~size pieces for an easier fit into the trash bin. Have been reviewing your engine removal thread, noticed that you were online and thought I'd say -]-[owdy!
Hope you've been holding up under the strain, too...
