Hello all!
Hi folks,
I have only owned my X Type for a couple of weeks and already love it to death.
I am based in Devon in England and am enjoying cruising the lanes to the strains of Vivaldi.
The economy is so much better than my old Focus and nothing short of miraculous when I leave the county and enter the motorway network.
I am self employed and work from home so I don't do a huge mileage, so although the car has just covered 80k, I fully expect to get many more years of enjoyment out of it.
As a newbie to this marque, I made the classic mistake of concentrating on condition, colour and history and completely overlooked the options... after all it's a Jaguar, it'll be stuffed full of gizmo's wont it? I'll have fun discovering them on my way home.... WRONG!!!
So I now have this wonderful car, but a total lack of buttons to play with... oh well, the first step on my learning curve I guess!
So, dear forum people be prepared for lots of inane questions from me, but be assured, I will have a huge smile on my face BECAUSE I'VE GOT A JAGUAR!!!
