Hello everyone; just wanted to thank everyone for all their help over the years with my STR. It's been an absolute blast to own and drive this car everyday, and I with I could convince my wife we could somehow keep it (apparently I am not allowed to own 3 cars??). I recently bought a 2008 Saab Turbo X, AWD turbo wagon, which is also a blast to drive, and I am really enjoying putting the bikes and the dogs in it, both of which I never could or wanted to with the STR.
I really had a good time discussing exhaust options, and helping others navigate taking care of our beloved rides. So cheers to everyone, its been great, maybe one day a new XE will be in my future. These forums are a great example of how car forums should be run as I have been on some type of auto forum for 15+ years, so thanks again to everyone and best of luck with your Jaaaaagggggs.

BUGGA.
I was allowed 8 Jags not that long ago.
Anyway, thanks for participating.
We all move on from time to time, and even return at other times.
We will still be here when you re-aquaint yourself with a Jag.

Even though I cannot live with black vehicles, I must admit that yours is indeed prime. Good luck with the sale and be sure to encourage the new owner to join the forums. Happy trails to you....

Rasputin, sorry to hear you're selling the STR and leaving our ranks, I'm sure a beautiful car like that won't hang around for long?
You'll always be welcome here, Jag owner or not.....
All my best
Jim

The magnaflow is going to sound great, really makes a nice burble around but could be louder? Better start small and go from there. All my posts should be archived so, hope my exhaust setup helps others in the future. Feel free to PM me, ANYTIME about anything!Originally Posted by Robinb

Maybe the new owner will join and we won't lose the CAR!!!!!!
I have worked on cars that were sold and the new owners showed up at the shop.
I have SOLD cars and the new owners ask if I will still work on the car???
I just keep repairing the cars through different owners.
Tell the new owner to join the Jaguar Forum!!!!!!!
