Testimonials for KWE
"It
would be difficult to exaggerate the improvements that you have made to the car
mechanically, and the transformation is all that you promised. The works have
been clearly extensive, and your amazing enthusiasm for the marquee is apparent
in the way that you have ‘sorted’ UPB out. UPB has been in our possession for 14
years, when it was then 6 years from new.... and I don't recall it being quite
such a gem to drive even then. It probably wasn't this good to drive when it
left the factory!
"The car is so much better after all your work and I am thoroughly enjoying it. I will have to think seriously about spending some more on the suspension and possibly on new wheels as you advise. Anyway, very many thanks, money well spent." Mr K.P., Corsham, suspension, brakes and engine upgrade to XJS-C
"This is a brief note to say how delighted I am with my XJS. The suspension changes and power enhancement package have completely transformed this car. The difference between the standard set up and your upgrade is quite simply astonishing." Dr C.S., Swindon, XJS Upgrade. (See full letter)
and again after an Alpine trip:
"Just a short note - you and your team have done a terrific job. Nearly 2,000 miles to the Alps and back, with several mountain passes barely noticed!! It was great to get the car back, and in a driving condition that reminded me of when she was new. Thank you all so very much." Mr J.S., Tunbridge Wells, XJSC Suspension & Engine Upgrade
"The car drives beautifully so thank you for the work." Mr J.N., Oxford, XJS Upgrade
"Just a quick note to thank you for the splendid job
on the fuel rail. The whole engine bay has been transformed and the car runs
fantastically
smooth now and certainly shamed a few XJS racers not to mention most of the
e-types at Goodwood yesterday. I managed 8.2 MPG on the track (not
bad really!) and 22.8 on the way home....a complete revelation, nearly 7 miles
more than before the fuel rail was cleaned." Mr M.A., Woking, V12 Fuel rail
"Well I’ve had a chance to throw it about a little
and what a difference. The roll bars have to be the most obvious initial
improvement, the fact that the car stays level round a corner adds enormously to
a sense of confidence. The revamp of the steering & suspension seems to have
ironed out all the little oddities that I was experiencing and makes the whole
experience much more pleasurable. I’ll have to play with the settings a bit on
the dampeners as it’s a little bouncy but at least I can!
Thanks very much Chris, I just wish I came to you five years ago.
"I’m delighted that you have made such a good start already and many thanks for the photos. It really shows the benefit of your approach of prospectively replacing the things that are likely to fail." and about a non-KWE car: "PS I spoke to JF yesterday. He wrote his Celebration off after the rear suspension let him down on a low speed corner! Hence I do not need any more convincing that the rear suspension should be done too." Mr J.N., Oxford, XJS Suspension upgrade
"You've made a great car stunning." Mr J.H., Birmingham, KWE K2
"I wish you could have seen the delight on my wife's face when I rolled into our rendezvous in Kent. "Oh it looks so nice!" I was then very happy to nurse the lovely old lady safely back home to Andorra. (And the car!) Seriously though I am absolutely thrilled with the new gearbox and transmission. The inside of the car is a real joy too and lovely to live with. I was also pleasantly surprised at the number of appreciative looks, waves, hoots, and comments during the journey eg "is that really an A reg?......well done." ". Mr M.D., Andorra, XJ6 Upgrade
"Had a very good journey back, very tempting to put foot down but TOO many cameras. Car felt very good, smoother engine and sharper handling without sacrificing ride! Just right, enjoyed looking at photos, its a complicated beast that's for sure". Mr A.P., Rutland, XJS Upgrade
"You have just sealed my customer loyalty to your company in the first blow! What a super response – I only hope that prospective customers for the business I am in are half as impressed as I am on first impression with the time you have taken to answer my questions and the thoroughness of your advice." Mr J.A., Newbury, XJS Assessment
"The car is Fantastic although it has not been out for a month due to the weather." Mr G.C., Henley, XJS Full Upgrade
"Performance on both petrol and gas is superb." Dr L.D., Cirencester, XJ12 Upgrade
"PS. Underside photo looks lovely. I'd eat my dinner off it!" Mr M.S., Newbury, XJS Upgrade
"Just to let you know that the suspension settings are spot-on now for my taste and the car is a delight to drive." Mr J.C., Usk, XJ12 Upgrade
"After a factory visit in a very business-like and professional environment the directors treated me with the utmost courtesy and showed how flexible their packages could be tailor made to my requirements.....throughout the work I was able to visit the factory and talk directly with the mechanics carrying it all out...the handover day came, delivered to my home and with a bottle of champagne on the back seat..... I also found the service, enthusiasm and professionalism of KWE to be a breath of fresh air over previous automotive experiences...." Mr J.A., Abingdon, XJ12 Upgrade
"I finally had a chance to drive the car yesterday. Firstly, the handling has much improved. It does hold the road very nicely. I’m glad I’d opted for the 50bhp increase as the car does need more kick. The exhaust note does help with the sensation though." Mr D.L., Hong Kong, XJS Upgrade
"Well the recent weather has certainly given me a chance to assess how successful the waterproofing has been and you'll be happy to hear that she's as dry as a bone inside. great job!" Mr B.H., London, XJS Upgrade"My wife and I decided to take my everyday driver, Ruby (the first ever KWE K1 and an appropriate deep burgundy in colour) on our holidays to the South of France this year....And the reaction she received was everything I wanted - one French lady nearly running under the wheels to scream "Elle est Belle!!" at us as we passed through her village and my brother in law getting us to crawl slowly through his town, past the house of anyone he knew, in the hope they would see him in a proper Jag.....As KWE would say - what would you rather drive! " Mr S.R., Luxemburg, KWE K1
"First, thanks for looking after "Maggie" recently - the drive to Marlow/Henly and then back to Bristol last weekend was great. The steering is sooo much better and I've yet to feel any scuttle shake." Mr A.D., Bristol, XJS Upgrade
"Hi Chris, the Jag ran like a dream home today so I should soon be adding more points to my licence!" Mr R.T., Teddington, XJS Service
"Now back from our travels and still in one piece. We covered 2000 miles without a missed beat. You are to be congratulated, Chris, on a superb engineering job." Mr S.V., Purley, XJS Upgrade
"Having great fun with the car and loving it. Wife approves, children approve, dogs not been introduced---nor will they be!" Mr S.P., London, KWE K2
