Default Hey everyone

Hey guys, and gals, my name is Shane, and obviously I'm new on here. While I do not currently own a Jaguar, I have always had a soft spot for them and would like to get a XK8 as my next car to replace my current daily driver, a 2003 Mustang Mach 1. I signed on to find out some info on these cars since i am new to them, and also to meet some cool people in my area.

Welcome Renegade, you've come to the right place for some great info to help you with your purchase.

However as regards to meeting people in your area, you might want to edit your profile to show people where you are.

Cheers,

Welcome to the site. A buddy of mine has an '04 Mach I. It's probably my favorite of the SN-95 mustangs (I think I even like it more than the Cobra)

Welcome Renegade, a 2003 Mustang Mach 1 is a nice ride but it ain't no Jaguar XK8 ride. I'm a chevy guy with a Jag. If you get a jag you'll love it.

I joined before I bought my Jag and it was well worth it. Welcome to the forum!

Welcome Renegade. I'm in the same boat - hoping to purchase an XK8 in the future and reading about them in the meantime.

I've attached photos, but I'm not sure how well they will display. I've also provided links to one of the Porsche forums I visit. Here's the link to the Porsche 928:
