The virtues of going driving during the Easter break

Easter is a time for relaxation. There are Easter egg hunts, laughing children, hot-cross buns, obscene amounts of chocolate, trips away, and families gathering to spend quality time with each other. But let’s be honest – anyone who’s not a little bit over it all by day three is either a better person than I […]

Celebrating Easter with a Jaguar Easter egg hunt

How many Jaguar Easter Eggs can you find? No, we’re not talking about a chocolate shaped leaper (although, that would be pretty neat), and we’re also not talking about a mere Jaguar themed wrapping on a regular chocolate egg.

Become an Expert on the Jaguar I-PACE

The electric car is here. Well, it has been for some time. But we’re not talking about beared greenies in woollen jumpers converting old hatchbacks with kits bought online, or new-wave lefties buying a Prius and then sprouting their newfound environmentalism at any given opportunity. No, this is a proper car. A Jaguar, in fact. […]

The World’s rarest Jaguar is out of hibernation

Consider what you could do in 6,725 hours. You could drive 128,503 laps of Circuit de la Sarthe at world record pace in that time. After which time you would be a little green in the face, but it’s still doable. Or, if you’d like to spend those 6,725 hours at a more sedate pace, […]

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.
