Default New to forum AND to Jaguar

I live here in Colorado and have never been much of a gear head. Cars were mere transportation. But since I was young, I always thought if I did drive a premium car it would be a Jaguar. There was just something about them. So now in retirement I got a wild hair last week and bought an ‘05 S series car. It has low mileage and appears to be in great condition. Next week I plan to update the sound system. Of course I worry about high maintenance costs, but so far so good. I know mechanics and fellows that have also owned Jags.

Hello,
Congratulations on your new Jaguar!
Maintenance cost for Jaguars is sometimes exaggerated. Generally, dealership maintenance is far more costly than DIY for Any car of Any age.

Maybe you accidentally ingested some motor oil or gasoline or something and it switched on a dormant gene. Anyways, welcome to our crazy obsession.
