Greetings!
Hello all!
My name is Rod, and I'm a proud owner of a new to me 2011 Jaguar XF. This is a first Jag for me after a string of US made vehicles (Buick, Mercury, Mustang, Lincoln).
I test drove a used 2004 S Type in 2008 before buying a new '08 Mustang. Loved the drive of the S type, but the interior, especially the dash/radio was soooo dated (it had a cassette deck... in 2004 model year... and no CD...).
So gave up on Jags for a while... Until I went to the local Jag dealer to test drive the XK8 they had on the lot, and after realizing that I don't really fit in that car, the salesman pointed me in the direction of the XF. It was love at first sight, and after few months of aggressive negotiations
, a lot of thoughts about reliability and cost of maintenance... I bought the Jaguar XF.
So, now a month into the ownership, I can only say this; The Best Car I've Ever Owned!
Oh, and thank you all for this wonderful and very resourceful forum!

Welcome to the forum Rod,
Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.
I can see you've already found your way to the XF/XFR tech forum so there's no need for a link to it from me.
Please remember to add vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. Go to the User CP button on the left of the top menu bar, then Settings & Options under Your Control Panel. Select Edit Signature and enter the details.
You can also visit the USA Western Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/western-us-ak-ca-nv-ut-hi-wa-id-38/ to find other members in your region.
Enjoy the forums.
