Default New XFR owner in Houston

Hi,

Just picked up an ex-demo 2011 XFR, black on red in Houston, TX. First Jaguar, traded in a 2008 Audi S4 V8 which I had previously considered to be a fast car. The XFR only recently came onto my radar for a potential purchase as all XF's seem like ridiculously good value at the moment. It is going to get some time to get to know and for me to develop my skills to handle this thing appropriately! My look at getting some tuition on a track somewhere! I am an exiled Brit so it is nice to finally own a home-made car!

Cheers,
Dave

Welcome,
Steve, from Georgetown TX
I have an EX-DEMO 2011 XF Premium (no XFR or supercharged).
Love mine, and hope the same for you.

"I am an exiled Brit so it is nice to finally own a home-made car!"

My wife, Sue, is also from the Jag homeland and loves the car.

Welcome from another Texas location! I'm sure you'll be comfortable quite soon in that XF.

Hello Dave and welcome to jaguarforums.com.

If you haven’t already you need to put your car details in your signature. I am speaking of the Year, Make & Model. Without it you may not get the input you are looking for. To do this go to, User CP, Edit Signature, Add Vehicle Details and such and Save Your Signature.

Please take a moment and read the information provided to you explaining the rules. Be patient and enjoy the site.

Also, should you have questions related to your vehicle please post it in the section for your model year (MY) car. This way you will reach all the members that are familiar with your MY car.
