  • 'Wessex Ways' September 2020
    WESSEX VEHICLE PRESERVATION CLUB FOUNDED 1971 www.wvpc.org.uk ‘WESSEX WAYS’ SEPTEMBER 2020 VEHICLE OF THE MONTH JAGUAR MARK 2 The Jaguar Mark 2 is a mid-sized luxury sports saloon built from late 1959 to 1967 by Jaguar in Coventry, England. The previous Jaguar 2.4 Litre and 3.4 Litre models made between 1955 and 1959 are identified as Mark 1 Jaguars.The Mark 2 was a fast and capable saloon in line with Sir William Lyons 1950s advertising slogan: Grace . Space .. Pace, available with all three versions of the advanced Jaguar XK6 I6 engine, the 2.4, 3.4, and 3.8 litre. Production of the 3.8 ended in the (northern) autumn of 1967, with discounted sale of the 3.4 continuing on as the 340 until September 1968, and the 2.4 as the 240 until April 1969. There was no direct successor to the Mark 2 series. The 3.8 litre Jaguar S-type, an upscaled and refined version of the Mark 2, had already appeared in 1963, well before the first of the Mark 2 models was discontinued. The Jaguar 420, a more powerful and refined version of the S-Type, appeared in 1966. Both of those models remained in production until late 1968, when the Jaguar XJ6 appeared, ostensibly replacing and placed rather midway between them and the larger, more expensive Jaguar Mark X produced since 1961. The Mark 2 came with a 120 bhp (89 kW; 122 PS) 2,483 cubic centimetres (152 cu in), 210 bhp (157 kW; 213 PS) 3,442 cubic centimetres (210 cu in) or 220 bhp (164 kW; 223 PS) 3,781 cubic centimetres (231 cu in) Jaguar XK engine The 3.8 is similar to the unit used in the 3.8 E-Type (called XKE in the USA), having the same block, crank, connecting rods and pistons but different inlet manifold and carburation (two SUs versus three on the E-Type in Europe) and therefore 30 bhp (22 kW) less.

Region - Club #21 www.carolinajaguarclub.com CLUB NEWS Election Special Welcome to the November issue of the Litter Box. Greetings, Salutations Cheers. We made it through most of this year mostly unscathed. Normally at thnis time of the year we would be holding an election meeting at a Jaguar dealership and voting for our new officers. This year for the first time we managed this online. Thanks for those of you that participated. We have a new line up for next year. Thanks for the efforts of our team this year. Though not much happened we have a healthy membership and we look forward to brighter times. I for one have enjoyed the quiet roads and have managed to put a few miles on the car this year. CONTENT NEEDED With the club doing so little this year our newsletter is getting hard- er to keep interesting. If any of you feel the need to write then please send some of that material to me. It would be much appreciated by the rest of the club I am sure. Jaguar XJ Richard Lloyd-Roberts CJC Editor. /Webmaster/Social Media guy From The President TED HILL To all CJC members, Just when you think 2020 couldn’t get any more bizarre here we go again. Regardless of anyone’s political persuasions the biggest threat to our constitutional republic is the question of integrity in our election process. In my opinion this must remain in tact or it will cause irreparable damage to our country.

  • The Legacy of Sir William Lyons (1922-1985)
    The legacy of Sir William Lyons (1922-1985) The story begins in the early 1920s in Blackpool, England. William Walmsley was building motorcycle sidecars when he met his young neighbour – and fellow motorcycle enthusiast – William Lyons. With their shared passion for motorcycles, it was logical step for the pair to go into business together. In 1922, shortly after Lyons‟ 21st birthday, they founded the Swallow Sidecar Company, selling Walmsley‟s hand-built designs which were distinguished by their beautiful streamlined shape. Above: William Walmsley (left) and a young William Lyons (right) together with their sidecar Business boomed, and the company expanded, adding car body repairs alongside their sidecar business, before expanding into building car bodies (and changing its name to Swallow Sidecar and Coachbuilding Company) which were bolted onto the chassis of existing models like the Austin Seven (1927) and later, the Fiat Tipo 509A (1929). In 1927, now firmly established as a coachbuilder, the company dropped „Sidecar‟ from its name to become simply Swallow Coachbuilding Company and the following year, with business prospering, and needing to be closer to England‟s automotive hub, the company moved to larger premises in Coventry. In 1931, Swallow launched two new models, the SS I and SS II, built on a chassis made by The Standard Motor Company, with competitive pricing, despite their premium styling. In 1934, co-founder Walmsley left the company, leaving Lyons at the helm. He renamed it S.S. Cars (Standard Swallow) and created an engineering department, hiring a talented young engineer, William Heynes, to oversee the development of new models.
