Phil’s Blue 2001 X-type

Introduction

I came across this car via David Eynon, the X-type model coordinator for the JEC magazine. The car had been sat in a garage for 9 years following the previous owner's passing. His son had decided to sell the car to someone who wanted to put it back on the road & preserve it. Which is where I came in.

After pulling it out of it's garage, we trailered it home. It then went to Stephen Heywood's for a new fuel pump as it wouldn't start. I then gave it a clean up & mini service.

It passed it's MOT with flying colours in July last year, 2025, before completing the Harewood Hill Climb event last year (see pictures below).
