Default New XJR purchase

My family is new to Jaguars and an European cars for that matter. This is our first luxury sedan and we are happy to be a part of the community. I am a performance guy and my wife likes the luxury stuff so we opted for this XJR over a multitude of BMW, Lexus, Mercedes, Infinity, and other Jaguars. I think it's the perfect mix betweeen my performance need and my wifes need for some style. We should have some fun in this thing if it stays together!

Judging by statistics a Jag has a better chance of staying together then the average marriage. Congrats on the car. Who's valentines day gift was it yours or hers?

Hello and welcome to jaguarforums.com. I know that you are anxious to get started and we are anxious to meet you and talk about your car. We have a baseline / criteria that must be met before full access can be granted. Please enjoy the forum and be patient once the baseline has been satisfied full access will be granted. Please continue to post and accept my welcome to the forum.

Oh one other thing 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.

Please take a moment and read the information provided to you explaining the rules.

Be patient and enjoy the site.

Lol, well the marriage is great as long as I do what she says every once in awhile and the Jaguar was a gift for both of us.....I think....come to think of it, I haven't driven it since the test drive so she might start to get a little TOO comfortable in it if I'm not carefull. I need to get this thing to an independent machanic to have it gone over but first I need to get a warranty. Anysuggestions on a warranty company for used cars?

I read the rules and they are all pretty simple and easy to follow so there should be no problems there, besides the oversight of the car description in the signature . I will get that done right now and thanks for the warm welcome.

Here are some pictures of the car. These are not ones I took but the pictures from who I bought it from. I haven't had time to go out and detail the car yet and take my own pictures but rest assured, I will get it done soon.

Default Independent Warranty

Do you guys have any suggestions for an independent warranty I can get for this car?

Thanks for the compliment BTW. Yeah, I liked the style as soon as I saw it and I am really happy with it.
