Talking I just bought my first jag

Well I searched google for a Jaguar forum and this was the first to pop up. I recently bought a 2001 jaguar Vanden Plas. My latest baby is Silver with a black leather interior that has grey piping. I've been looking for a low mileage Vanden Plas for serval months when I found this. It's a one owner 60,000 mile meticulously maintained example of my favorite body style. In addition to the jag I also own a 2013 Subaru Legacy 3.6R limited and a 2008 Cadillac Escalade ESV... I hope this is a good intro to the site!

Thanks for reading,

Nick

Welcome to the forum Nick,

(I've enlarged your thumbnail - it deserves a big pic!)

Good intro and a good Jaguar to find. A one owner VDP with low miles and maintenance history is the best combination.

Follow this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/xj-x308-xj8-xjr-27/ to the X308 section for help, advice and information.

Remember to add vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. Go to the User ID button on the left of the top menu bar, then Settings & Options under Your Control Panel. Select Edit Signature and enter the details.

You can visit the North East US Region section by following this link North East US - ME NH VT MA RI CT NJ NY PA - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the XJ8 and the forum.

Graham

Welcome to the forum Nick, the Jag looks beautiful. I agree the X308 has the best lines out of all the XJs, not that any are bad.

Thanks everyone! I'm really looking forward to this site. I already have a feeling this isn't going to be my only Jag. I'd really like to find a Super V8 black on Black with low miles. I know it's not going to be an easy find, but I have patience and determination. If anyone has any suggestions on where to look and what to look for in the car please don't hesitate. I'm by no means a Jaguar expert.

Thanks again,

Nick
