Default New XF Owner - Southern England

After a long wait I finally took delivery of a Botanical Green 2010 model XF Portfolio this weekend. Loads of toys to play with and clocked up a bundle of miles in not a very fuel efficient manner. I have the 3 litre diesel because I wanted the twin exhausts.

What a car, a real pleasure to drive and feels so much more special than anything I've owned before, then putting it into Dynamic mode on the bendy roads , well wow.

I'm still grinning

Hi Jokaboat, Welcome to your new car, and to JaguarForums (and the friendliest bunch of Jaguar fans you will find anywhere :-)). I see Graham has given you some great pointers to get you started on here so I won't replicate his work, however I can point you towards the great local resources you can find in the UK & Eire section here - with local suppliers/repairers, UK specific info, and our regular meets around the country. One quite large one is coming up in Brighton in the next few weeks. Meetings are a great chance for you to put faces and cars to names, often at a great venue, with food and often with a Jaguar dealer in attendance.. and are well worth popping along to..
I very much hope you enjoy your time online with us, and if you want to attend any o the UK meets I can guarantee a very warm welcome for you and your car :-)
