Default Hi from Madrid

Let me introduce myself. I'm a mid fifties petrolhead with a deviation for classic cars and bikes of the 60/70s.
Have had and array of classics including a Pagoda (beautiful car), a TR6 and a Porsche Carrera, but always lusted for an E type.
However an E type is out of reach both in purchase and maintenance costs so i've considering an XJ6 series I, II or III as the jag alternative. After lots of reading about this model i've decided to go for a X300 instead. It has the classic looks and quite a bit more reliability. I hate breaking down!!

So i'm in the quest for a green X300 4.0 Sovereign and shall be very active on that model forum from now on.

Cheers everybody and thanks in advance for sharing the amazing knowledge of this forum

Thank you all for the warm reception.
I've posted some pics of the cat i'm looking for on the model x300 forum under "X300 mileage?" thread. Your input is most welcome

GGG, give me a ring whenever you are in Madrid, i could guide you over the dark side of the city ;-)
