Notes from the editor<br />

An interesting comment was passed the other day. A member asked “what does the jag club do<br />

for me”. I am reminded <strong>of</strong> the late American President JF Kennedy, and to paraphrase him “it is<br />

not what the <strong>Jaguar</strong> club can do for you, but what you can do for the <strong>Jaguar</strong> club”. We have<br />

attempted to arrange car runs with the <strong>Jaguar</strong>s since June 2010, however the response has been<br />

getting less and less, we then tried organizing our runs to coincide with the Durban Early Car<br />

<strong>Club</strong>, which resulted in even less <strong>Jaguar</strong>s attending. On numerous occasions, we have provided<br />

opportunities for various activities, but unfortunately have had very little or no response to<br />

them. At our last committee meeting, we attempted to address this lack <strong>of</strong> interest and have now<br />

reached to conclusion that as this <strong>Jaguar</strong> club is in name-only maybe we should consider winding<br />

it down. In a last ditch attempt to have a <strong>Jaguar</strong> outing we are proposing that as <strong>Jaguar</strong> cars, we<br />

attend the vintage Baynesfield hobbies fair. Details will be provided in a later issue.<br />

This notice concerns all Left hand Drive vehicles.<br />

I appreciate that not all <strong>Jaguar</strong>s are left hand drive, but some <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Jaguar</strong> drivers have other<br />

vehicles that are left hand drive. This email was sent to us by SAVVA and should be taken into<br />

consideration.<br />

SAVVA will be hosting a web page on the SAVVA website for all enthusiasts to log their<br />

left hand drive vehicle/s. Please log all registered, un-registered and vehicle/s under<br />

restoration in order to ascertain the collective number <strong>of</strong> LHD vehicles in S.A.<br />

You will be required to list your name, id number, vehicle particulars, e-mail and contact<br />

details.<br />

This site will be confidential and not accessible to anyone other than the authorised<br />

personnel dealing with this on the SAVVA committee.<br />

Should you not have access to internet then the information can be faxed to 011 435-<br />

9821.<br />

Please note that the final document will be a collective one from SAVVA and SAMCA. We<br />

are meeting with MSA in order to garner support from them.<br />

Once this information is collected savva will compile a report that will be distributed to all<br />

the clubs prior to the document being tabled to national department <strong>of</strong> transport (ndot) for<br />

a concession to LHD vehicles. <strong>The</strong> website will be operational by Friday 28 January to<br />

start registering your vehicle/s on: - www.savva.org.za<br />
