Posted in my original thread but thought I would show off my new ride here too.

2014 V8S; hard loaded including carbon fiber bits and pieces and 5500 original miles when purchased last month.

 

The jury's still out on that exterior color.
Your whiskers need a trim (mine are due as well). A sharp knife will clean it right up.




Beautiful car...Congrats!

 

ha..I can handle the whiskers getting too long but it's the dang hairballs that I keeping coughing up that drive me nuts. Taking it to the dealer to look into it.


Nice car you have too; got me thinking of trying out the tune!

 

OH MAN

In next week I have new rears being put on (tomorrow), Jag performance / infotainment / battery update at the dealer Wed, then short shifter Thurs. WOOOoooooooooot on that last bit. So excited.

And the day after that, I get to go for a 5 day, 1400 mile road trip up the CA & OR coast, then to Willamette Valley Wine Country, and home again, hitting approx 26,500 miles (in 639 days, but really who's counting).

That's approx 5500 miles from my next service.

How much anyone want to wager I won't be able to wait for a tune, by that point? LOLololol

Hinge will be the death of me. Thank you, Unhinged. =)

 

lol...yeah, I love reading Unhinged's mod posts along with a few other folks. I just purchased an extended warranty from my Jaguar dealer and forgot to ask their thoughts about getting the tune. I can probably surmise...lol.


Post some pics of your road trip with the Jag!

 

She just arrived today - shipment delayed 2 weeks, I was going mad, but finally the sky shined and she is with me here now! More and better photos after the cleaning and registration. Could not wait to share though :-)

 

I am so happy with all the combination I got in this car, with the fantastic price I found it for what it is and compared to the category.

Glad there is no TMPS, no ECO on-off! (I hate those both!!!!)

Glad there is a spare wheel, glad about these awesome black wheels!

Glad the spoiler can be operated at any condition of drive, also at different heights, in addition to when automatically!

Glad this is a R with RWD and it felt fantastic to bring her home and make her part of my family today!

It does not have InApps, Powered Rear Trunk, but who cares? It has more then everything one wishes to have!

My Beauty & Beast! Made my life happyeeeeeer!

Greatest day! My two sons love it, my wife too, even our dog KOKO was excited! Friends are bringing gifts! :-)

 

Congrats man...awesome car. I can feel your ear-to-ear grin from here! Enjoy!

 

Wait.....

!!!!

Don't you have to return it? It's not a manual transmission? Just joking.

All car enthusiast trigger points aside, yours is one of the most gorgeous I've seen in a bit. The greys that they are pulling out of paint shops including Jaguars HQ are gorgeous.

I am not a mindless consumer, I don't enjoy most random purchases. I'm fortunate that I worked my *** off and have been able to find something to enjoy and appreciate at this moment in life, but whether young or old, whether you can afford it or not, whether it makes sense in any meaningful way, this is the greatest thing I have applied capital to.

I hope you enjoy it. I do admit that it has really impacted local Airlines with my normal contribution. There's no reason to fly anywhere, especially when you can drive the ridiculously delightful roads of Northern California and the Pacific Northwest

 

Congratulations man! Could you post a pic of the interior of the rear hatch? I'm curious to see what one with a spare tire looks like. Not many of that configuration here.
Enjoy!

 

Well, not much space left of course, but could be an issue only for long trips which for me will be very rare. I pardon it, and feel saver to have the spare wheel anyway.

 

Car was on its toes, freshly waxed so popped out earlier ... parking was a bit of a squeeze ;o)


Then, the weather changed .... so I took some pictures to show off the wax effect and beading ...


regards, Paul

 

Love it more each day!

 

Occasionally I find myself almost ordering the original slim side splitters .... Then I see back to back posts like above ... JagAlb's Coupe looks amazing, but for me, when you compare the 'waistline' to my Coupe posted above, the splitters detract from the lines of the car ...

Never say never, but for now, I'm keeping her curvaceous ...

 

I close the garage and admire it - is a piece of art! Never felt this special in or outside a car!

 

After 4 years of ownership, I still feel the same way. Enjoy!

 

Looking it live, I think the new slim ones fulfill the car, widen and sharpen its shark-like design, also the under front bumper knifes besides adding down-force give a more sharp cut to the incoming air opposition

What scared me was the convenience in entry-exits but once I took the car and entered, exited I see that they perfectly fit and do not bother at all, neither get damage by the feet. My car comes also (at least I think so) with higher ground clearance, being an Asia market built, and this helps too in side maneuvers as well as the car itself needs more side mass to my taste and eyes.

I keep admiring this coupe, alone in the garage, and all of it in every bit or piece or shape.

 

ALL the lines on this (our) car NEVER get old. Best looking rear since my NSX(s).

 

Not a bad looking front or side either...

 

Where are you ordering (or thinking of ordering) them from?
