Welcome to the East Sussex Region

Our region is a friendly and active group of enthusiasts who share a passion for Jaguar and Daimler cars. Whether you are a proud owner, a classic car admirer, or simply curious about the marque, you will always find a warm welcome when you join us.

When We Meet

We meet monthly for relaxed and sociable gatherings, usually for breakfast or lunch, as well as Jaguar related events at venues across the area, centred around postcode BN24 5EG. Because we enjoy exploring different places, our meeting locations vary – giving members the chance to experience new venues while enjoying good company.

### What to Expect

Our meetings are about much more than just cars. They are a chance to enjoy great conversation, make new friends, and share knowledge with fellow enthusiasts.

Throughout the year we organise a variety of activities, including:

Informal social gatherings
Guest speakers
Club barbeques
Quiz nights
Visits to classic car businesses and Jaguar-related specialists
Local events and shows
* Weekend trips and drives

Whether you want to talk cars, get helpful advice, or simply enjoy a relaxed social outing with other enthusiasts and their partners, our region is the perfect place to do it.

### Everyone is Welcome

You do not need to own a Jaguar or Daimler to join us. If you appreciate these wonderful cars and enjoy the company of like-minded people, you will fit right in.

We warmly encourage all members to come along and experience the welcoming atmosphere of the East Sussex region. If you have not joined us yet and live nearby, why not try one of our breakfasts, lunches, club nights, or local events?

You might just discover your new favourite social group.

Insurance Checklist

Before you get in touch with us please make sure to note down as many of the following details as possible. If you can complete the checklist ahead of time, it’ll make the process of arranging your insurance quick, simple and easy.

 

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).
  • Your membership number for the JEC
  • How many vehicles are in the household (you might qualify for multi-car insurance).

 

Vehicle Details

  • The make, model and year of 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.
  • Any previous professional valuations of the vehicle(s).

 

Vehicle Use

  • Where the vehicle(s) is/are typically kept overnight (e.g. a garage).
  • The expected annual mileage of the vehicle(s).
  • What the vehicle(s) is/are typically used for.
  • What cover (if any) is required for:
    • Commuting or driving as part of a job.
    • JEC TrackSport, or other such situations.
    • Use of the vehicle(s) abroad.

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.
