Hi from a new member, my name is Ross and I picked up my X type yesterday, It came about by chance when I decided to sell my 1964 Rover P5 3 Litre, the classic garage I use had just taken a 2003 X type in PX and were not sure what to do with it, I was after something a bit more modern and the Jag is a 1 owner full history car with 78k miles, so a deal was done and I came away with the car and some cash and thoroughly enjoyed my 165 mile drive back from Bedford to Frome Somerset yesterday, it's a great car!

My other cars are:
1996 Ford Probe 24v 2.5L quad cam V6
1954 Morris Minor MM 1000cc Split Screen
1969 Morris Minor 1000cc 2 Door
1971 Morris Minor 1000cc Convertible
1964 Rover P4 95 3 litre
1972 Triumph 2.5s TC
1995 Ford Probe 16V 2.0L
And finally a 1985 Rover 213s (not sure why but i do love it)

After deciding to sell up and move to a narrow boat, I needed a more modern car, so most of the classic will be going soon.

 

Welcome to the forum rdm. I do hope you enjoy your new X Type.

Quite the list of classics you have going on.... Any pics to share with us?

Enjoy all the site has to offer!

 

Welcome to the forum,

I second the pic request , it's ok if you don't have one of the 213.

Just joking!

 

Thanks Guys

I'll get some pics added I've just started to add some in my garage.

 

Welcome to the forum.

Quite a group you have there.

Some pics of the cars and the boat would be good.

Pootling along at 4mph, can't be a bad lifestyle.

 

We'd love to see pictures before you sell them off. Welcome to the Forum.

rdm5555. I tried to correct for uploads. I found your photobucket account and I see you have many photos. I did not want to upload the wrong pics, so here you go:

1) goto photobucket account
2) mouse over picture that you want to load here
3) right below moused image, you will see "IMG Code"
4) left click "IMG Code" photobucket automatically copies code
5) come back to forum page, right click mouse (in reply box) click "paste"
6) you will see [IMG] blahblahblah......[IMG] at the begining and end, you have to manually change both [IMG] to lower case [img]
7) click post reply

It sounds like much, but really its a breeze!
