Talking Former Jaguar forum stalker, now a member

Hello Everyone,

I've been coming to this forum for a while, looking up solutions for my 2000 Jaguar S-type 3.0 and I hope it's not to late to say Thanks!

Currently I'm trying to decide whether to keep my Jaguar or get it to a better home (with a garage). I have a second car that gets excellent gas mileage, so the Jaguar sits in my driveway. I just dealt with putting a new fuel pump in since I let the car sit for over a year. Luckily I have a great mechanic and the car just passed smog check. But, the transmission is slipping and clunking (especially when it's hot) and I don't know if I want to invest any more money into a car I might not keep.

BUT! When I drive the car I love it! My other car is a small Toyota and when I get in that car after driving the Jaguar I just go "ugggg". Decisions, Decisions.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it

Welcome Stormy,

Stalking can be forgiven but leaving a Jaguar standing and driving a Toyota is just too much!
