Welcome, mille! That's a beautiful car! And it's guaranteed to turn more heads than the Saab. I actually own a Saab 9-3 convertible as well as my Jag XK8. The Saab is a nice car, but the Jag has style. I let my son drive the Saab.

I really enjoyed my saab's,(7 in total)but all things must come to end end.

Last one was a 9-5 3.0t with Nordic tuning upgrade, 240hp 360nm





Reliable comfortable fastish car and comfortable, i have the premium sound system in my jag but compared to the Harman Kardon system in my 9-5 its a big let down.
The saab system was much better.

But other than that i enjoy the jag, yes i have the lurch,and the amber suspension light every now and then but these can be solved i found out on various fora.

Regards

Mille

Welcome. Not sure I've seen many other members from your part of the world. Is your Cat a rare breed in the Netherlands?

Thanks everybody for the warm welcome.

There are some jags around, not in abundance but you see the regularly.
Most X and S types,and lately the XF obviously.
Most XFs are sold as company car diesels here I imagine the 2.2 diesel version will be rather popular..... withe them..not with me..

XJ is rather rare,and the XJR even more so but until now only positive reactions apart from the remarks of having a corpse in the trunk and a couple of kilos Colombians finest in the glove box..

English not being my mother tongue I see I have made some mistakes in my writing.

Other forums have an edit button so i can correct my screw up's but i cant find one here..

Welcome to the forum. Great looking Jag you have. Not been to Holland for a long time, once camped around Emmerich and had fun going through the border crossings just to get to the pub in Holland.

Don't worry about typo's, and the edit button will soon appear for you.
