Hi all,

Quick story about being new to the Jag world:

Post Covid my company reorganized and I took on additional responsibilities including another site 55 miles from home. Was on track to kill my truck with 25k miles a year so started looking for another car to share miles with. Wanted something cool so started looking for supercharged cars and found my 2013 XF 5.0 SC all blacked out about a year ago. I wasn't expecting to buy a Jag but loving the car (except for sticky buttons) and get compliments on it regularly.

Soon after that I saw a sweet looking all black F Type R at work, figured out the owner and started talking Jag. In one of the conversations I said let me know if you're ever going to sell it...


So now we're a 2 Jag house. I should be selling the XF but havent been able to bring myself to do it yet.

I've been lurking on the site for awhie and looking forward to being a member now.
Barry

It sounds like you've already found your way around the model forums so there's no need for a links from me. Please read the guidance for new members ( https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/n...ned-up-241802/ ) which answers many of the most frequent questions about getting started.

Enjoy the forums.

Welcome to the Forums.

HA, I got to 8 before management had words, now down to 3, but looking again.
Glad management does not read these.

Good luck.

Thanks guys.

And too funny Grant. I tried taking my mine into an F Pace when her lease ran out but she wasn't having it.
