Default Always wanted a Jag...

And now, well into my fifth decade, I have one. We just purchased a 1997 XJ6 Vanden Plas, about 67K miles. The car is in beautiful condition, a blast to drive, and by far the best looking ride on the road. At this time, a month into ownership, I am still obsessed with finding and fixing every little problem I can uncover on the car. What a great place the internet is, where no matter what hobby or avocation you can come up with, you can find and hook up with a community of like minded folks.

Default Welcome

I also wanted a Jaguar for a long time. From the XKEs of the 60's to the current crop of truly beautiful motorcars...

Once I decided to take the plunge I searched for three long years to find "just the right one."

and I did...

There is now an indigo blue XK convertible outside my window.....

Welcome to the forum and good luck. I know I am confident that with all the help here there's not much that we cannot do with our cars.
