Smile Photos 2001 XKR

Here are some photos my good wife took. Hope you like them. Car needed new tires/tyres so we got some Michelin Pilots and an alignment. Huge improvement.
Car was a Canadian vehicle taken to Florida for 8 yrs. then returned and sold to second owner here in Windsor. has never seen a snowflake and not much mileage. Was pristine but had it professionally detailed. its a real head turner.
thanks to all again for your posts and interest. have attached some photos.
Paul

Default Brand New Here

Hey, I'm in SE Massachusetts, and have a '93 XJS Coupe in diamond blue with almost 87k miles on it. I never see another around these parts, and it's got to be one of the finest in the northeast, as it was a southern car, and I brought it up north almost 11 years ago. It's never been in any snow/salt slop ever, and always garaged.

Welcome from yet another Canadian and a fellow Ontario resident. We certainly have an impressive number of cats in the province.

Enjoy the website!

Mike

A late 'Welcome' to Jaguar Forums from me Paul.

I've been away driving my Jaguar across Europe and had no internet access.
