Hever Castle, Hever Road, Edenbridge, Kent TN8 7NG

Sunday 20th September

Kent Region returns this year to stunning Hever Castle—which has always been a very popular Kent Day venue—and we hope other Regions will support us to make this a truly memorable event.

Set in 125 acres of glorious grounds, Hever Castle was once the childhood home of Anne Boleyn and her ghost has been reported to appear, particularly on Christmas Eve, and often seen drifting over the bridge that spans the River Eden…

Parking is once again on the lawns and food’s available in several areas within the grounds—or why not bring your own tables & chairs and enjoy a picnic?

We’re booked as a ‘Jaguar Car Club’ and you need to book your ticket in advance. Go to this website: https://events.liveit.io/hever-castle-and-gardens/jaguar-car-club which is unique to us: you MUST pre-book and pre-pay to display your Jaguar on 20 September. Prices are £12.20 for adults, £10.65 for students and £5.90 for children. NB: Payment must be made by 19 September 2026 and each ticket is per person and includes access to the gardens only. If you want to visit the castle itself, buy a ticket at its entrance on the day.You need to arrive at the entrance no earlier than 9.30am and you must be parked up by 10:30am ready for the public opening. A castle staff member will direct you to our stand.

IMPORTANT

Anyone turning up between 9.30 and 10.30 am who has not pre-paid will be turned away until the public opening at 10.30 and will then pay the full price for entry and might not be able to join Kent Region’s stand

Once you’ve paid you’ll get an email from Hever confirming your booking, but to ensure Kent can keep track of numbers please let Kent Chairman John Suttie know by email, jasuttie@live.co as soon as possible—and preferably well before the 19th September deadline. This is vital—he needs to know to ensure plenty of parking space on the day.

Personal Details

  • Your personal details, including your full address, home, work and mobile phone numbers, and email address.
  • The full name, address, date of birth, duration of licence to drive, and 5-year claim and conviction record of the person who will be driving the vehicle(s).

  • The current overall mileage of the vehicle(s).
  • The engine size and specification of the vehicle(s).
  • All modifications made to the vehicle(s), such as the installation of non-standard wheels, aftermarket electronic equipment, performance-enhancing parts, or cosmetic upgrades.

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.
