Default Finally bought my mid life crisis car - A Jaguar

What up guys -

Long time car enthusiast, living in Northern Nevada, and finally bought my dream car last month. A Santorini black F Type R coupe, all black, with the louder exhaust flash still in place

Finally found a deal after looking for over a year. Bought off the original owner, pretty rare, with all the options I wanted, coupe, pano roof, vision pack, black pack, all black, sport package. Looked like it had been stored in a barn for at least a year. Currently repainting the hood louvers and the right lower sport package front bumper spoiler which the previous owner scuffed. Very expensive parts, gotta love looking for used parts on eBay from Lithuania lol. Ended up just buying parts from the dealer.

Anyway just saying hi!

- Ross

Hello, Ross,
Congratulations on your new BLACK (my favorite) F-type Jaguar!
Yeah, Nothing looks quite so bad as a scuffed panel on a BLACK car.
Good job getting that fixed. Poor kitty was SOOO embarrassed. All better now.

Welcome to the forums from ElinorB.
