Default My first Jag: a Silverstone!

Hi Jaguar Forums:

After a lifetime of wanting one, I finally got a Jaguar. My wife bought me a 2001 Jaguar XLR Silverstone Convertible with 38K on it, in amazing condition, for my Birthday yesterday! What an amazing automobile, a truly special machine it is. The moment I fired it up, started driving down the road, I knew I have always belonged to THIS car! I do believe it has a soul and it has found me, not me finding it!

Its good to be a member here, I am sure I will learn a lot from all of your experience. I have a responsibility now, a new member of the family to care for!
Brad

Welcome to the forum.
I got a Jaguar calendar for my birthday, not quite the same as getting a car!

Welcome to the Foruns..
I did get a cake...I think? To be honest I just wanted to sit in the Jag so I think my kids ate it all. I need to go look for what's left....
