I retired on February 1 2011 after 34 years on one job, and I wanted to do something for myself that I had never done before. I have always wanted a sports car but never in my wildest dream would I have envisioned myself not only owning a Jaguar, but a convertible at that. The first time I drove that Jaguar I was hooked, and I knew that I had to own it. After I bought this car and stopped to fill it up for the first with gas, other people that were getting gas stopped to tell me what a beautiful car I had. I grinned all the way home!!

Smoothone 777,
Welcome to the forum. What did you get and can we see a picture of it?
I am new to the Jag experience also and cannot believe how much more I enjoy driving it than my old Vette. The old saying "you get what you pay for" is very true regarding Jaguars.
Enjoy your new sports car.
