Just thought I'd introduce myself and say that I'm excited to be a member of the forum and the new owner of an '09 XF-SC. Over the past few months I have been looking for just the right car to replace my Porsche Cayenne S. I owned the Cayenne for a tick over 2 years and it met my needs perfectly. I drive about 40,000 miles per year and decided several years ago if I was going to spend that much time behind the wheel I was going to drive something I truly enjoyed driving. However, I also tow a boat throughout the summer months and a trailer full of off road vehicles year round. The Cayenne had an impressive 7700lbs towing capacity and was athletic for its size. It was also a very capable vehicle in the snow and ice.

I recently fell into an amazing deal on a Ford Expedition 4x4. It was too good to pass up so I jumped on it. With the Expedition in the stable I can use it for towing and in adverse weather. So I thought to myself, its time for a luxury sports sedan to replace the Cayenne.

Enter the Jaguar. In deciding on a car I eventually narrowed the options to the BMW 550i w/sport package or the Jag XF-SC. I genuinely liked the 550i and still do. But I'm drawn to unique, less common vehicles and there was that intangible gravitation toward the XF. Last week I came across a good deal on the Jaguar and pulled the trigger.

I'm very happy with my decision and look forward to enjoying this fine automobile. I'm also excited about being a part of this forum and community and hope I can contribute something useful.

Here is a pic of my car!

 

Nice intro and welcome to the family...

 

Welcome to the forum! Love your XF.

 

Great pic of the XF! Welcome aboard!

 

Welcome to the forum,

Have fun with the new car.

 

You gotta admit, people see BMW all the time, but a Jag raises eyebrows!
