Default G'Day from Downunder in my new X300

G'day,
Glad to become a part of the big cat family.
My 4 little fur babies here are finally joined by a big shiny metallic sister.
Picked up this '95 X300 Sov for a bargain privce from auction, looks pretty clean, does a few little problems that may tak a while to diagnose all and fix all, but can't be happier.
Don't mind having a beautiful driver with some things to fix here and there.
mechanically seems great so far, has been recently serviced, all fluis full and clean and comes with decent service history.
First things to fix are Drivers Seat, Glove box and Remote.
going to upgrade and customise a few things here and there too.
Always loved Jags, happy to finally have one and hope to keep her in my family for a verry long time.
She is a 4.0L Gold Paint with a Metallic Charcoal Wrap.
she looks pretty sexy IMO. The wheels maybe too big (@20") and the tints maybe too dark but we will see how she goes.

Welcome to the Forums.

20's are pushing it in my opinion, but its your car.
