Default It's been a long time in the planning...

Hello folks. I'm James and I'm in Gloucester, England. 10 years ago, I started looking at X350 XJRs but ended up putting all the money I had into a house and sidelining that plan.

In September last year (between lockdowns) I travelled to the Wirral to look at and buy a 2003 XJ6 sovereign with 118k on the clock. It's my first Jaguar and I'm enjoying the whafting. Prior to this I've had 2 Bmws, two alfas, two Saabs and a few boring cars.

I'm now getting to the point in my ownership where I sort out niggling problems so thought I'd join what appears to be a phenomenal source of knowledge and experience.


Handsome old thing.

Welcome to the forums James,

Good to have you with us.

I can see you've already found your way to the X350 forum so there's no need for a link to it from me. The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information on regular issues. You can also use the UK & Eire Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/uk-eire-68/ to find other members in your region.

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

Enjoy the forums.

Graham

Nice looking car James, certainly stands out in the street amongst the other 'mediocre' cars.
Smart idea to buy the house first!
Welcome to this great forum.
