Long Beach CA checks in....
 

'96 x300 white over tan, 137,000 miles, 2nd Jag ever. First was a light blue over navy '71 XJ6. I never forgot that car, here I am again.

I wonder if it's just me, the 40 years since, or if that '71 wasn't just a wee bit sweeter of a car.

NO pics as I don't see how to upload them.

Welcome to the forum Milt,

First love is always the sweetest...

Welcome to the forum, just think how you will feel about the X300 in another 40 years;)

Yes, thanks. I am an experienced forum user, especially this format. I did miss the 3 day, 10 post requirements which is new to me and a very good idea RE the spam.

40 years with the x300 won't happen as I'm 65. I may have to find a '71 that is in top shape and take it for a drive just to compare. No mistake, the '96 is a great car and I looked for specifically an x300 because of the inline 6.

I'm sure I won't miss the Lucas electrics. :)

Milt, welcome to the forum. Great to have another from the west coast aboard.

Well now I can post a pic.
 

I saw it first here.

Lovely Jag Milt...
I was lucky enough to spent 8 years in England whilst in the USAF...
really made me love most things British (to include my wife)
Cheers
