Hi, Just picked up my new 2015 Saffire Blue XF Portoflio 3.0 AWD last weekend in Seattle. We live in South Eastern WA where there are no Jag dealers so hence why we bought it in Seattle.
This is my second Jag. I just sold my 2005 XJ8L back in January of this year. I see it ended up in a place called Milwaukee, OR. A Mitsubishi dealer. Odd place for jag but O'well.

Just wanted to say high and look forward chatting about jags. My husband and I love Jags and Cadillacs. :-)

 

Welcome!

Wish we had more happening down in that part of the state, but it seems Jags east of the Cascades is pretty limited in numbers. Makes you car just that much more special!

You've got some great back roads over there to explore, and I'm doing my best to start learning them. If nothing else, be sure to watch for our Leavenworth trip in September, and come up to join us!

Okay, my question is "Did you open it up a little on Hwy 240 across the Hanford Reservation?" These cars are just locked to the road at speed, a joy to drive. Welcome to the Northwest group, I look forward to meeting you and your XF.

 

Hi Clevername, Thank you for the invite for Sept. I will keep my little eyes open for that Sept event.

You are so correct in saying that we have very few Jags east of the cascade's. I have only seen 3 other XF's 2 XJ's and XK models here and only one F-type in the tri cites which does make my ride very different and special from everyone else. Which to be honest is what i strive for, to be different and not a crowd follower. You have a very nice XK coupe. I have a pic ofme and my new beauty here under the XF forum thread...

 

Hi Swinref, Yes a little on 240 but I really open this beast up on 395 north out of pasco. Striaght and flat for high end power cars for fun top speed. My husband drives a 2014 XTS Vsport with 425HP and loves to drive it like he stole it. I love my 345HP XF. Way enough for me for NOW! :-) WOOHOO!

 

Thanks for the welcome all.

 

Welcome JagCpl. Congrats on your new car!
