Default Newbie here!

Good day fellow Jaguar enthusiasts, this is Northern XF, a new member as of today, I'm from Fenelon falls and have been a proud owner of my 2010 Jag XF 5.0 for almost a year now.

I have owned other powerful v8 cars old and new, my last baby was 2005 Chrysler 300c 5.7 hemi, it was a great car, but doesn't hold a candle to my new 5.0.

To prove this, there is even a video on YouTube of me racing a 2014 300 S (still a 5.7 hemi) with Diablo tuner, headers, full exhaust, intake ect at a Picton arm drop Racing event ....and I just spank him with my stock Jag 5.0....video is called 300s vs jaguar xf 5.0

Which leads me to my first question, why was I the ONLY jaguar at the event? The next event is May 20 and I would love to see some bad *** XF-R and F types tearing up some domestic muscle!

Anyhow that's a little bit about me, glad to be a member!

Unless it's an event in which my Jaguar club also participates, I'm also driving the Only Jag to be seen. Even some club sponsored events, drives and such, I'm the Only one brave enough to bring my Jag, unless another member simply has nothing else to drive.

It's a mystery to me too.

Welcome.

Well done on the "spank", haha.

The only Jag, it is a special moment indeed, and I get that at the local shopping centre (mall to some), where I am the only Jag in the car park, and a Black one at that.

It was indeed, among Corvettes, Hellcats, muscle cars alike, I was the only Jaaggg in probably 300 cars...
Sure turned a lot of heads.
