Just inherited my grandfather's pride and joy, a BRG 1996 XJS convertible.

Isn't she pretty?

Welcome to the Forums.

That is an awesome XJS, very privileged to be the caretaker of that.

Good luck.

Welcome neighbor. That's a pretty cool inheritance. My cousin has my grandfather's 56 Chevy truck. I just got a rickety antique table of no real monetary value.

Hopefully they'll let us have car shows again next year and I'll get to see your XJS in person and hear some stories. Be sure to check out the local Jaguar club. One of my favorite shows of the year is usually around the first Sunday in May at Dreyfuss Club Point at White Rock Lake. I usually participate in at least one show a month but I only made it to one car show last Spring with my Corvette before everything shut down due to COVID. I am suffering serious withdrawal symptoms.

Welcome to the forums AllyCatXJS,

Very nice. Shame you only came here to sell it. I've deleted your ADVERTISEMENT. Please read the rules.

AllyCatXJS clearly wasn't equally excited. Posted this Intro three years ago and was last on the forums only two days later.

Perhaps sic transit gloria catti (one for the Latin scholars).
