Default Newbie here from Greensboro, NC

Hi I'm Tim from North Carolina. I have a 2003 2.5 liter Jaguar X-Type that I purchased in July 2009. The color of the car is Carnival Red with creme white interior. This is a great car and very fun to drive. My interest in Jaguars started when my mom purchased a brand new black 2006 Jaguar XJ Super V8. After driving her car for about 3 years I decided I wanted a Jag My sister just bought a 2003 Jaguar S-Type a few days ago so you can say the whole family has Jags.

Here are photos of my car when it was at the dealer. I removed the window tint and also put a chrome grill on the front (not shown in photos) The car also has a navigation system.

other information:

The car has 40,000 miles and I also added chrome trim around the headlights and rear tail lights. I had to remove my Jaguar licence plate frame because of a new law. The frame can not cover up any portions of "North Carolina" on the plate. The same law they have in Arizona.

Welcome Greensboro great looking motor you have there. Now that is different, most people seem to want to add window tints not remove them.

Enjoy your car

thanks! so far It hasnt needed service since I bought it. I dont drive alot so that I dont put to many miles on it. I've had the car since July 09 and have only put 3,000 miles on it. Its about time for an oil change. My mom takes her Super V8 to Bob Dunn Jaguar and she gets great service there. I remember when she bought her Super V8 the local paper done an article on the very car she purchased and they had a picture of it. She has gotten tons of freebie from Bob Dunn. But likely because she bought a $93,000 car from them.
