Hi to all you Jag folks out there. Looks like a great spot for chat and info.
Just sold my first Jag (01 Stype 3.0) Just bought an 06 Stype R Black.
Love this car,what a difference the 4.2 SC does for the get up and go,also the gas mileage seems reasonable compared to my 3.0.
The only dislike is the crappy finish on the Brembo calipers compared to the 05 and earlier versions with the nice powder coated red and green R colors. Anyone know of a fix for this situation other than changing to the earlier version? Maybe a decal or slip cover kit.

 

welcome MBC. Didn't join up with the first one?

 

Thanks mohrd.
I never looked for a Jag forum with the first car....dunno why,could've helped with some questions I had.Glad I'm here now,better late than never.

 

Welcome to the club

 

Thanks Cadillac, glad to be here.

 

Howdy Fellow Texas!!

Welcome to the forum MBC!

 

Thanks Jamey, Where in Texas are you?

 

Amarillo.

 

Hey MBC welcome to the forum
Re your question, probably better checking that out with the S type guys in that section for better results.

Good luck

 

Thanks Jim. I will speak with the S type guys. Who is the girl in your photos? looks nice

 

MBC, welcome from Ft Worth! Now you've done it, you'll smoke me in that 'r' of yours. keep an eye out for a silver xk8 w/ texas tech plates. I drive to dallas alot.

what color is your 'r'?

 

Thanks H2O. My Cat is Black, I was just over at Autobahn in FW today for a couple of warranty parts I was waiting for. They are the closest dealer to my home in Southlake. The silver XK8 is a dandy machine and also can pack a punch. Looked at the new XK portfollio while waiting at the dealer,all I can say is WOW but I need to come up with $100,000.00 to drive it home, not this year.....

 

Autobahn guys are top notch. They'll treat you good.

I try to avoid showroom browsing when I am there. Lots of shiny things to touch. I know what you mean. i'll look for a black stypeR when i'm tooling the dallas streets. I'll honk!
