Re: Crazy Jaguar brakes

BTW it was Jaguar who first raced with disc brakes at Le Mans, and led the
field in their development. Jaguars today are probably no less reliable than
current Audis, and were just misunderstood by mechanics in the past! Never a
problem though if the licence plate bulbs blew, or the battery was dirty,
just simple things like heads and gaskets...
