The October Jaguar Breakfast Club took place on a Sunday rather than the customary Saturday and what a fortuitous move it was, as the Saturday was subject to constant downpours whilst Sunday basked in sunshine!

Despite the haphazard fuel situation around 140 Jaguars saved enough juice to make the trip to Gaydon and were rewarded by an extraordinary turn out of Classic Jaguars, including an impressive line of 1960s ‘compact Jaguars’ displayed by the Jaguar Drivers’ Club. In addition, an internationally organized drive to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the C-type was specifically arranged to coincide with our meet and attracted both originals and replicas.
