Hello
Where to start. I've been along time Jaguar owner of a few models and all around DIYer.
I've been trained and certified as a Motorcycle Mechanic and consider that my first passion. I love my Jags as well and have gotten my wife of 13 years involved with the purchase of a very lightly used (20k mile) 2003 S-type 3.0.
I myself currently drive a 2004 XJR in Jaguar Racing Green Metallic with every option and upgrades that seem never ending both factory and by myself. I've read this forum for quite awhile now and am very familiar with alot of you and have found very useful posts here so thank you.
Now Id like to say I've personally replaced all my suspension with Arnott air suspension (Arnott is an hour drive of me) as well as brakes and rotors, suspension components and all the usual coolant leaks(yes under the SC
as well).
As I realize I have been on a regular basis coming and reading posts that perhaps if I want to chime in every now and than I should probably be a member. I look forward to being helped with issues as well as helping others.
Thats what this is all about after all and I think id be a great deal of knowledge to alot of people. As I mentioned I have had and driven quite a few models of Jags both very old and very new.I have worked as an assistant to a European shop specializing in Jags and Rolls Royce as well as Aston Martin for a couple years back in the day.
Now its all about my cars
and bikes...yes as a motorcycle enthusiast ive owned 30-40 bikes in the last 20 years and consider my self Ducatista(Avid ducati collector).
Not sure what else to say right now as I really didn't want to write a book more so than explain who I am and what I live for....
Looking forward to the future see ya on my posts
