Default The new guy

First and foremost, thank you guy's for running an awesome site. I'm happy to be a newbie here and can't wait to absorb all the knowledge that is shared freely about these amazing machines. I live in Houston, TX. and I own a 2003 STR that is all stock, white, powder coated gun metal Grey rims, 88,000 on the odometer, always garaged. I also own a 2003 x-type, 2.5 liter, awd, beautiful blue, with 146,000 on the odometer. The x-type gets awesome gas mileage, the str...well, let's just say it depends on who drives it, me or the wife. I'm looking to do all the upgrades to the str, and leave the x-type alone. Good to be here.

Thanks,
Keith Anderson.

Jaguar knowledge is highly addictive. Once you get a taste it almost can't be cured.

Thanks to everyone for the open welcome, Addictive is an understatement. I am 32, just diagnosed ADHD, and have an itch that can't be cured for these cars. I'll post up pics ASAP. THANK YOU ALL, FAMILY IS WHAT IT SEEMS LIKE HERE. Sorry for the caps, fat fingered the phone. Hands stay swollen, can't stop messing with cars. I worked for CPP or Conley's performance plus until I went in the air force. CPP was the premier Buick GN shop in the nation. If you like, google Lawrence Conley, tweaked (fastest single turbo car in the nation), and tweaked II a 448 ci big block with twin 80mm turbos that went 6.25 In the 1/4 at 225mph. Good to be here.
