Default Moved On!

Hello Fellow Jaguar Owners,

I've had my Jaguar for about 3 years now and boy was it a journey. I spent too much money on it but modded it just the way I liked it.

A few days ago though, I moved on. Yes, I bought a different car.

I moved over to the Germans.

I wanted power and reliability so what better than to go to AMG...

I bought a C32 AMG and I LOVE it.

The car has 349 BHP. A huge upgrade from the Jaguar's 227.

I will continue to post of this forums every once in a while.

But the new forum is MB World.

Thanks for all the help you guys have given me in the past few years. I really do appreciate it!

Jaggy - congrats on the shiny new monster, she looks a beaut and I hope she gives you good service!

Here's hoping you decide to stick around and have the craic, you have been / are a great member and one who posted regularly with good info.

The thing is, you're only 39 posts away from veteran status and a set of JF steak knives

Worst case scenario......drop by from time to time and say hi to old friends, you'll always be made welcome here

Nice car! Looks clean and silver is the best color for a Merc.

Thanks so much Jim! I'll definitely be back to visit once in a while. Eventually I'll get that veteran status.


Also, thanks Jeremy!

See you around Jaggy, I've no doubt that you'll soon be tweaking the Merc.

Mind you, it looks mighty fine as it is.

Oh man I'm going to miss the British-ness of this forums. "Mind you" reminds me of top gear on BBC.

But yes, as tech nine said, I will eventually do a tune and a S/C pulley.

You're gonna have a lot of fun with the MB. Although quite different cars, it's got a lot more modding potential compared to the X-Type. Looks like you've already got a head start with the Brabus Monoblock VI wheels - easily one of the top five best looking aftermarket wheels for any Mercedes, and just in general in my opinion.

I'm a very active regular over on MBWorld for many years and many posts (used to own an MB myself). They're a different bunch over there, but you'll learn to get used to them.

Yes, that is part of the reason I bought that car. The modding potential is almost unlimited and I love modding lol. The brabus wheels are sweet. I bought them on the car and I'm happy I did so because they are expensive!

What MB forum are you on?

I'm on a lot of them. The main MB forums I'm on are mbworld and benzworld. Been on both since early 2005, and now I'm a moderator for the M-Class forums (the Mercedes I used to have) on benzworld. You'll find me as AsianML there. If you ever have any questions let me know!

Ufoz, the car will stay in the family. I've given it to my little brother, and I've upgraded.

H20, I'll still come back from time to time!

AML, very cool!
