That Jaguar diff is still the best ever fabricated... the cornering 'catch-up' is phenomenal.

Sorry about typo Inchcape.

Read this atricle about possible Opel return. https://www.caradvice.com.au/724868/opel-australia-return/

sorry MD.  My issue was I didn't know what  'inchape'  was.   I hadn't heard the news.

 

I would like to see Australia buy  'Holden'  back,  from GM.

And kickstart our manufacturing again...  even if only at developmental and design stages, at this point.

If  'Holden'  is home here...  than we can restart, and also expand laterally into other areas, like farm machinery, aeronautics, etc.

The F1 team was bought out by Red Bull, so they had part of it right  still use the same factory  

Probably never put in the top $$$’s

but Tom Walkinshaw had huge success

Ever seen inside a Jaguar Dashboard from the 80’s with the top off?

Scary Stuff :)

A mate had an XJ6 for years, she was beautiful to ride in, but a nightmare if the electrics went dodgy!!

 

Mechanically...Jags were brilliant bits of rolling engineering. Just the electrics were rubbish...and a few problems with things...well....falling off !! lol

The V12 was a sweet thing...just thirstier than an Elephant !!

Got to drive an XJC for a little while. Left the bozos in their tricked up Sandman for dead ???

Glad I didn't pay to fill the tank ;)


About time some prestige was added to the jumper. We are a sleeping giant, with a small (comparative to the big clubs) support base, albeit a base that has a high purchase intent and attendance rate. This makes us exclusive. And will no doubt help in appealing to inner-city Chinese students and expats.

In my mates Cat, it was always a classic at the Service Station if we could fill both tanks at the same time!

Congratulations to everyone involved @ the MFC for getting this deal completed. What a iconic company to have on board, onwards and upwards for the mighty Dees.????

Could see a few jumpers sold this year ;)

Any idea when they might be available? It’s a must buy for me as the Jag logo has always looked sweet, and on the back of our beloved jumper it looks even more so! Club shop doesn’t display the reverse side of the jumper.


In 1969 friends of the family pulled up in the driveway in this brand new car. 

I was 6 years old, and had not seen one before. 

It looked stunning inside and out

The original Dashboard with the row of Rocker Switches across is still in my memory. 

The 4.2 Litre XJ6 looked like a cat, long and low. 

Going for a ride up the street i can still remember. 

“What kind of car is this dad?”

”A Jaguar”

i knew about Jaguar. I had a Corgi E Type

but this was a real Jaguar. 

A design, like the Porsche 911 was used for almost 30 years. 

The Big Cat

Red Wrist Bands and the collar!!

  • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

  • NON-MFC: Round 14

    Round 14 is upon us and there's plenty at stake across the rest of the competition. As Melbourne heads to Adelaide, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches of the Round. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons’ finals tilt? Follow all the non-Melbourne games here and join the conversation as the ladder continues to take shape.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
