Yorkshire Geriatrics Car Club – The South African Tour 2016

South Africa is often described as “a whole world in one country” due to its dramatic diversity of landscapes, cultures, and wildlife. If you have never experienced this ‘cradle of civilisation’ then you have not truly lived. 
 
It is a number of years since the last JEC tour to South Africa so Tony Raylor, long time JEC member, who has 14 years of living in & 25 years of travelling around South Africa has put together a ‘multi make’  22 night car tour which starts in Durban on South Africa’s east coast on 1st April 2016 and finishes in Cape Town on 23rd April 2016.
 
In the previous 18 days you will drive approx. 2000 miles and see/enjoy the rural areas of Kwa-Zulu Natal, the mountains of Lethoso, the Zulu/British Battlefields, the Golden Gate National Park, the Big Hole & diamond centre of Kimberley – (just for the ladies), the massive Karoo semi-desert, the historical & visual splendour of the Eastern Cape, 2 days at  the ‘top’ in South African game reserve, the 800 km Garden Route coast, the Klein Karoo, the wine lands of the Western Cape and finally the cosmopolitan city of Cape Town & its environs.
 
Accommodation is in best quality hotels where possible with 2 night stops.  You will only spend 10 days driving + 2 optional days and only 3 day of the 10 have a mileage of over 200 on great traffic free roads.

Agreed values

We have a number of highly-qualified experts who can inspect your vehicle prior to purchase and provide you with a full written report. In addition to their complete understanding of the mechanical and aesthetic aspects of vehicle inspection, they have extensive experience with the Jaguar marque which perfectly equips them to identify the unique requirements of specific models and years, something that is particularly important for older cars.

The cost of an inspection begins at £100, with the final figure determined by the time needed and the distance the inspector is required to travel. We can guarantee that your inspection will be cheaper than an equivalent AA or RAC inspection.

This small upfront outlay could save you thousands in the long term.

To arrange an inspection simply call JEC Head Office on 0117 969 8186 and they will provide you with details of your nearest inspector.

Also from our club HQ in Bristol we can give you an official valuation for insurance purposes. Our valuations are accepted by all leading insurance brokers and Companies.

Simply call 0117 969 8186 for details

GETTING STARTED

Jaguar Enthusiasts’ Club Insurance is designed specifically for members of the JEC. That’s why it covers JEC TrackSport events and offers cover for JEC Young Enthusiasts. Furthermore, the scheme recognises that members may have a combination of newer and more historic Jaguars and so the scheme caters for all, other individually or part of a multi-vehicle offering.

Club insurance doesn’t operate the way standard insurance does. While it does still take a vehicle’s mechanical characteristics into account, it also places a lot of emphasis on how the vehicle is used, cared for and maintained.

Club insurance also offers a host of benefits and products that you simply cannot get outside of membership of the JEC, such as member to member cover for example. This enables you to drive your friends Jaguars at regional meets, events and on tours with fully comprehensive cover and without the need to complete more paperwork or ring up and incur costs for adding named drivers.

This way, you’ll be comfortable knowing that you have a policy that fits your vehicle and your usage needs perfectly.
