We really need a Jaguarfourms banner for this event? Anyone capable of making one and bringing it with them?

Had a great time today! Made some new friends and even won some swag in their raffle drawing. I will post some photos after we get home.

Myself, Cat Man, Country Cat and Richxk8 met about 70 of the British car folks from Tampa today.

Nice people, great food and lots of cool cars. I relived my teens and 20's by sitting in several models of cars I have owned through the years.

I also found the twin to my black XJR,see pic below.

We liked them so much we all joined their club!

We got to use our new banner and we all signed it, thanks Forum Gods!

Jaguarforums in the house!

I am really glad everyone had a good time, the weather did keep the attendance and car count downp a little. When I originally posted this I thought we would get a few Forum members to show but, never expected everyone to join our little club, thanks to all.

We now have 96 paid members. Remember to check out the website and Facebook I think everyone's car made it.

See you all soon.

Now, I've even more disappointed that I couldn't make it. I really hope I'll be able to make the next meet. its been so long since I've gone to any kind of car meet, and I've never taken the Jag to one.

Default Just found this post!

Hello,

My name is Tony and I was looking for people in the Lakeland/Tampa area that know of any reputable shops that are cheaper and/or closer to Lakeland than Jag of Tampa.
Looks like I just missed a cool event! I will have to see about joining the club so I can talk Jags/cars with someone other than my wife who just looks at me bewildered when I mention anything automotive!

All Jaguar in Longwood is about the same distance for you as Jag of Tampa, but they are a much better choice for economy of service.

Welcome to All Jaguar

+1 for All Jaguar being less expensive than Jag of Tampa.

Tony,

Sorry you missed the picnic, everyone had a good time. I also posted a link about the next big event in October. The All British Car Show in Safety Harbor, Jaguar is the featured marque this year, always a fun event in a great location.

Also, I have had good reports on a Jag mechanic in St. Petersburg, I have not used them yet but I will.

Here is the info: www.thejagworks.com, 727-319-3868. Just an FYI

Hope to see you at Safety Harbor.
