Default New to the classic Jag game, but loving every minute of it!

I was a kid when I first saw the XJS. It wasn’t as pretty as some of the other designs, but neither was I. It was love at first sight. In September of 2017, I bought a 1993 XJS 4.0l coupe. As much as I love convertibles, I have always loved the buttresses coming off the c-pillar of the hardtop. It has its problems (expensive ones to be sure!) but the perma-smile I wear when I drive it, the looks, thumbs-up, and conversations it garners everywhere I go make it worth every penny! This car belongs to a different world. It is impractical, selfish, and perhaps a touch silly... and I wouldn’t have it any other way!

Thanks for letting me in to the forum! I am looking forward to meeting other like-minded madpeople! Lol

Welcome to the forum Jackie-baldenwhite,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

I can see you've already found your way to the XJS 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.

Please 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 can also visit the Canada Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/canada-73/
to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham

Welcome.

That smile would be HUGE if it were the real engined V12, just kidding.

Well done, enjoy the ride.

Hello, Jackie,
So many of us know Exactly where you're coming from with that perma-smile. It's sort of a fixture here.

Welcome to the forums from ElinorB.
