Hmmm, So Cal.... That car in your profile looks suspiciously un-Jaguar..

I get a lot of that....the S60R in my handle throws people too.

Jaguar hopeful. Doing my research...where better than the Jaguar community?

You're so right XJ.........but he's definately NOT anti Jag......in fact he's working on getting his Jag, so maybe we should cut him some slack?
Just before us Jag freaks start ripping into him.....lol

Well you are welcome to hang out and do your research in any case. Here's my two cents worth for your research ...Once you drive a Jaguar, and only then....you will completly understand the uniqueness of everything Jag... as to the uniqueness of all of us in this loony bin...that's a whole nother experience.

And one you might never understand.

This may be a crude assesment, but I compare owning a Jaguar is like managing a strip club. Yes, you are surrounded by beauty, but trying to keep the "employees" in line is another story!

I've been down the complete rebuild road with constant maintenance and tuning required....a blown piston...a couple fuel pumps...many injectors...one AFR Controller followed by 2 different ECU piggybacks...cracked bank of headers...3 O2 Sensors...

I'm not afraid of a little maintenance here and there. Especially if the car turns heads and goes fast!
