Here is where I should had started!
Hello I'm new 2 the forums, anchored in California with a modest yet grateful way of living. Recently got my hands on one of (if not the only) the most exotic felines. Is a decent 1998 Xj8l, finally after a while of not owning a car much less drive, have to admit that it was worth the way and trivialities I had to end up with such of elegant Beast yet smooth athletic ride; did i mention that more than a gift it is a reward due 2 the fact I didn't had a licence for aforementioned "While" (I know shame on me), well, I got it back with a vengeance. I said 2 myself if ever I'm gonna drive again is going to be with STYLE...And it can't get better than this now, opinions may differ ( new model, more expensive cars, other brand may be better,...etc.)but to me is a bliss. There for like listening to a song that gives you chills, I named it: FRISSOM (although the right way to spelled is with a "N" at the end of the word, I combined two words "Frisson" and "Om").
So making long story short... I been singing lately to life itself: HOW DO YOU LIKE ME NOW.

I knew from the start that it was not going to be in perfect condition since is not brand new, but other than dirty it was in mint conditions. It has minor details that little by little I'm fixing myself if a can.
Too bad I'm not a player, friends tell me I got myself a pimp ride lol, in a line from a movie "It gets me from point A to B". (And that's enough)

First picture I take from it (today)... Frissom.

In advance, thanks so much for allowing me to be here and learn.

 

welcome. You shouldn't need to "pimp" too much since it already got attention...

 

Thanks for the welcome Jerry_hoback.

I believe I asked you for a PDF file about the model of my car on another tread...never mind that. Here you shined a beacon for my quest. Thanks very much. Graham. And also I will make some changes to my profile including a pic, whenever I'll be able to.

It's quite a leap from no car at all to a Jaguar XJ8L. It looks like a fine ride. Enjoy!

Thank you ALL, 4 the warm welcomed, can sense nothing but kind people here, also appreciate the very nice wishes towards me and the car. By God/universe grace. I got this ride and do enjoy every single time a drive it, since maybe is the mindset or just plain fact about "Frissom" as I call it (and no I'm not the type of person who gives names to things but come on this is the exception) that it gives you an overwhelming sensation of trust, confidence, and allure to savor the exquisite piquant moment. Once again. So much thanks.
