The steering wheel would jump in your hands when you hit a bump.  Dana found that the steering rack had been replaced but the old degraded bushings were re-installed.  The car was also down on power and the engine was surging.  This was due to a sticking auxiliary air valve, which I was aware of, but also due to an intake manifold leak.  Tearing down the entire top of a Jaguar V12 would make most mechanics cringe.  Not Dana.  He also replaced the injector hoses, which were cracked and in danger or causing a fire.  He fixed the problem which was causing the ABS light to come on, which was a bad front caliper.  He replaced the license plate lenses, which were cracked (I had bought some new ones).  He even fixed the AC.  I am sure he fixed a dozen other things too.  Dana is exactly what I needed...a knowledgeable guy (who has some even more experienced part time friends/mechanics to help) who is easy to deal with and who can take care of my Wife's dream car.  I dropped off a car I wouldn't let her drive and picked up one that I was confident was as safe as I could reasonably make a 25 year old Jag.
