Default Kia Ora, New Jag owner from Christchurch

Hiya,
I have just stumbled on this website while researching stuff about Jags...
We have recently had the opportunity to down size cars from our A6 Avante to a lovely X-type sport as we have brought a dedicated tow car for the rally car. I have wanted a jag for quite some time and flirted with the idea of an XJR a few years ago, but chose something else instead..
I am hoping the X convinces my very sceptical wife to allow me to get the larger s-type in a couple of years...

Welcome to the forum James,

Follow this link X-Type - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to the X-Type section for help, advice and information. If you're new to this model, the 'HOW TO' thread at the top there is a good place to start for info on regular issues.

Remember to 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.

You may also like to visit the Australia / New Zealand Region section by following this link Australia / New Zealand - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to find other members in your part of the World.

Enjoy the forum.

Graham

Yes - you've cracked it. Great colour on the X-Type.

I can see why your mind was elsewhere from looking at the pic of your apprentice!
