Default Let's get this Northeast area started..Roll call!!

We do have proud jag owners in the northeast. I don't get to drive my 03 S type R much in Western NY snow, but I do drive it at most times of the year as the 109900 miles othe odo show! My daily winter driver is a pristine 00 Vanden plas. Only major problems: steering rack on 2000 and ignition coils on S type. Synthetic fluids used exclusivly. Lets hear from other Jag owners here in the Northeast!!!

I have a 2004 jaguar x-type 3.0 with 55,000 just bought it 2 months ago. Love it no problems at all and best of all only paid $11,500 for a 1 owner clean carfax.

Proud Pennsylvanian here! Glad to see we're getting the region going too. Mine is also an '04 X. I thought the AWD would be a good feature for these PA winters. Just got the car last month as well so we'll see ho it does but so far I absolutely love it.

King of Prussia is relatively close to me. I'm about an hour or so north of there. And yes, it is near Philly. Glad to see wealready have some support in here in the Northeast!

Cheers beelab.
We keep getting asked to visit and never seem to find the time, we need to remedy that I think
Ideally I think I'd love to get over and visit the States maybe for say 4 weeks and try and see all the key places I've always wanted to see.

Let me know if you ever decide to get over here and I'll be sure to let you in on a few of the travel secrets to good ole' Philly. It can be murder to get around there and the lodging is really expensive. I travelevery week for my job, so over the years I've been able to figure out the hotel industry pretty well.We northeasterners are proud of our little corner of the world and are always happy to showit off!

Hey all, New Yorker, 06 X-Type 3.0, only 15,000 miles in 13 months ... love this car (my first) and the awd helped on my recent snowboard trip through the catskill mountains. As you can tell, I love driving, road trips, all over the east coast (including Philly).
What hidden treasures you have in Philly ? I've seen all the touristy spots ... usually just end up hopping over to AC to kill the boredom.

NYer here (Brooklyn!). I've had my 02 X-Type for about 10 months now, and I'm loving it. Not the most powerful car I've had, but I'm not the speed demon that I once was

I am looking forward to driving in the snow, for the first time ever! Usually it's an ordeal, considering I was a rear wheel drive kinda guy before.

Haha, I'm from Brooklyn NY as well. and the AWD is fairly nice in snow, just as efficient as my pathfinder's. I just love cruising on the highways with this car, just me and my Jag.

08 XKR with 1,600 miles in three months in the Western Philly suburbs. Travel the crummy roads every day to/from work.

Not too many hidden gems in Philly, but lots of good food.

I am from Massachusetts, I have a 2002 X-type 2.5L 5spd. I bought it for 13,500 with 35k miles on it in July. It currently has 46k miles on it. I have enjoyed the car thus far but the build quality has not impressed me. I am looking for a beater car right now to keep the miles down on my jag.

Checking in from Luray, VA. Most people call it a southern state, but I feel more like it's a northeast state. I got a nice 97 XJ6 L, but can't figure out how to shrink my pics to put them on here.
