Default Hello from Toronto, Canada

Hi there. I don’t own a Jaguar at this point but love the older classics (some I can’t afford and some I could). I’m into older classics, currently owning 3 VW Karmann Ghias. One is road worthy and the others are works in progress. They are easy cars to get parts for and to work on.

Now, I’ve located an older 340 (dressed down MKii?) and I am smitten. But, I’m afraid moving from and old air cooled VW to the Jaguar could land me in trouble. I guess that’s part of the adventure.

And a big thanks to all members of all forums for their invaluable support and knowledge.

Maybe this new dream will come true. I will definitely need help moving forward.

I don’t want to ramble, so that’s the gist of it.

Thanks for reading this.

Hello,
Jaguars are Always an adventure! Otherwise they might as well be Honda Civics!

I am totally familiar with adventures lol. Owning an older Jaguar would just be new territory. Thanks for the welcome!

I think luck will be needed. First, to be able to get that car I’m looking at and then to keep it going. Thanks!
