Default Newbie From Las Vegas

I'm new to the forum and to Jaguar. I live in Las Vegas and recently bought my first Jag -- a CPO XF V-8 Supercharged that my wife just had to have, despite the fact that she is disabled and wheelchair bound. So far I'm really happy with the car (except for the loading of the chair in and out of the trunk). We are a couple of retired folks, and moved here like a lot of people to escape the tax burden and cost of living in California.

Welcome to the forum, you will find a lot of kind folks always willing to lend a hand and knowledge. I too am from Vegas recently moved here. I will be organizing a meet and greet later in the month and will send you a private message with details.

My wife (also wheelchair-bound) was the driving force behind the purchase of both our Jaguar and our 2015 Ford Mustang convertible. We've found for most outings that a small collapsible transport chair is very easy to load and unload (weighs less than 20 pounds) and folds small enough to fit into the Mustang trunk comfortably, so is super-easy to get into the Jaguar's trunk. A standard wheelchair will fit in the XJ trunk; not sure about in an XF. At any rate, welcome!

Welcome to the forum bigfoot12,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

I can see you've already found your way to the X250 forum so there's no need for a link to it from me.


Please remember to add vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. Go to the User CP button on the left of the top menu bar, then Settings & Options under Your Control Panel. Select Edit Signature and enter the details.

You can also visit the US Western Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/western-us-ak-ca-nv-ut-hi-wa-id-38/
to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
