Default new member, upgraded to str

hi everyone,

My name is Mattijs from Holland. I'm a new member on this forum, so it's time to introduce myself.

4 years ago I bought my first jaguar (x-type 2.5 manual sport)
It was a childhood dream coming true, this babyjag never let me down and I always sat with a big smile behind the wheel. now it was time to move on and bought a s-type r.
the car is a real treasure! it's fully loaded and black on the outside and inside (no red seats, didn't like that much) further not much upgrading to do (compared to my x-type)

black indicators ; done
debatching ; done
install acm (removed from my x-type) to be done
black reflectors; to be done
install headrests dvd (removed from my x-type) to be done
wood layout on center console ; not sure yet
leaper ; not sure yet
rims ; not sure yet, got 19" from my x-type, but that's no match ;-(

didn't took much pictures yet, when i've got the reflectors done, I will post the result ;-)

Sweet looking STR! And your X-Type was a nice looker too. Glad you stayed "in the family" for your new ride. Come on over to the S-Type forum, lots of STR guys over there and plenty to discuss.

Welcome aboard!

once you have a jag, you can't go back.
I love jags, and especially the str, gives me a big grin. a wolf in sheepskin
