Default Greetings from Eastern Europe

Hello for everyone and welcome to me

My name is Paul and I am student from far east of Europe - Estonia. I am 19, turning 20 in few months.
I have recently bought myself a Jaguar. Decision came quite randomly - while walking through several used car sale yards, I've stumbled on an rare example on X-Type. Quite quickly I started to love the looks and comfortable drive of the vehicle. So I've got 600€ off the original price and got myself a real bargain.
The vehicle is 2004 X-Type Estate. It has pretty much everything the car this year had. Heated seats, sat-nav, cruise control, electric seat adjustments, leather interior, foldable mirrors and DSC. I thought this was executive equipment put in car, because one year younger Mondeo had same equipment stated as an "Executive". Engine is Ford's trustworthy 2 litre diesel from Mondeo. Gearbox is manual, just as I like my car. Mileage is original 198797 km (123527 miles). Full service history, previous owner was female.
It's been 1 week since I bought it and I have driven almost 1000 kilometres (805 to be precise). Some clinks and nags are showing up. Rear bushes want to be replaced, as well as inner tie rod endings.
Okay, pictures talk more than words. I'll throw some pictures after purchase here.





Thank you for your attention
