Hello Guys, for me is a pleasure to be part of this wonderful community, there is a lot of good material here thanks to all of you Jaguar lovers. Coincidentally my full name abbreviated is J.A.G. lol.

My first car ever was a Jaguar S-Type 2001, later replaced with a Jaguar XJ8L 2005 and this one has been my partner since that moment (2016) as relationship, we have been through high and low, good and bad, etc, etc. I spend a lot paying for some details that needs to be fixed during the first few months, now I'm able to fix these details by my self and honestly the car is now better than it was when I used to pay for someone else to fix it.

I know that most Jaguar's owners want to keep the car just as it is, but I love custom stuffs, that's why I already customized a lot of the interior including the Stereo, doors panels, center console, etc, etc... but I haven't break anything and I still have all the original parts just in case.

Now my next big thing to do is painting the car, the sun here in Florida has not been generous at all, specially for a black car.

So, again thanks for allowed me to be part of this community.

Hello J.A.G., good to see more X350 / 358 owners about, especially DIYers. As said above, nobody will maintain your car as well as you will.

https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x...-today-163346/

is an interesting thread for ideas, info, and just idle curiousity about what others are doing.

ETA:- Always good to see photos too.

Default Thanks guys!

Thanks a lot guys for your welcoming comments. It's good to be around people with similar love for our cars.

There is something about Jaguars, specially the JX's models. Friends and family ask me about the car just like they would ask me for another person... How is the Jag, where is your jag, etc, etc But it's not common that anyone ask about any other car the same way they ask us about our jaguars and honestly is not about how expensive or cheap they are, it's more like a family member, priceless.

​​​​​​​I'm pretty sure that I'm not the only one who's think the same way.
