Default My Info

I just found this site. I am retired and bought a new 1972 Jaguar XKE Series 3 Convertible as a gift to myself for surviving Vet Nam. I had to sell the car in 1974. I told myself I would get another Jag someday. I just bought a 2009 Jaguar XKR convertible and I love the car!

Thanks for the welcome. I am an analog guy in a digital world--do not know how to post pictures. Next time my daughter is here I will have her do that for me. It is liquid silver with charcoal interior--burl walnut package and 20" Senta wheels. 4.2 supercharged engine. I love it!
