hi guys,

i want to get my dad a leaping jaguar for part of his christmas present to go on the bonnet of his xj8 but i dont know where to go and dont want to pay the price charged by jaguar themselves because im sure it will be 3 figures and i dotn have a job lol



i saw one in a classic car mag i think it was about £40 but cant find the mag and cant find the company on google anyoe got any ideas

Have a look on ebay for 'leaping jaguar'.
i've just had a look and there are too many to list
hope this helps

I'm not sure but i think it might be illegal to affix a non-deformable one of those to a car which didnt already have one. Reason being the injuries the things cause to peds who get in the way

you can mount it aslong as its more then 154 mm back from the front of the bonnet if waht i read earlier is true

i thourght that it would have to be retractable

Just got back from Exeter show, there is a stall that is selling them, top right hand corner

Looks like it'll be on a wood base then, should look really good on a piece of mahogany IMO

We have a quite a few leaping cats from various years, displayed on mahogany plinths, They do look the biz. (IMO)...
