Default Not Really New - New. Intro A MUST

I have posted on this sight in past years "yes years" and found the information very helpful. But business and other obligations have kept my idle time , well not very idle. I have a 2006 S-Type with 63k miles that I have owned since 26k miles . It is my ____ car as of just a few months ago. Not really my weekend car , for my 1971 Dodge Challenger takes that category. Not my other car for my 2010 Vette has that title. But I like the Jaguar so much I decided to keep it. I drive it "I know I am wrong for this" on rainy days, and when I need four seats. Which has been about 2-4 days a week, depending on the weather of course. But I must say my Challenger has it’s high points when I drive it "classic Amercan Muscle" , and my Vette is just the quintessential performance car. But must admit that Jaguar has it’s moment's also , especially on the highway. It definitely has a better gas range than the other two. It is black , blacked out tail lights , dark window tint, ebony interior , carbon black trim and sport package.

Cajun, welcome to the site. Using an S type as a wet car isn't so bad. My XJR is sitting in the driveway with a roof rack and ski box on top and it was purchased b/c the winter car X-type couldn't handle towing the new vintage Serro Scotty I bought last spring. Well, it was at its towing limit at least.

Cajun: Welcome back to the Forum. I also bought a new 71 Challenger that I certainly wish I still had--50+ cars ago. Blacked out S Types are very handsome automobiles.

Nothing more fun than good Ole Classic American Muscle. 440 - six pack - 4 speed "pistol grip". I have fired my Physiatrist since I bought this.
