Welcome along Socal............hits v posts thing ancient history bud.
Say Hi to Socal guys, a guy with a fast volvo looking to change sometime soon to a fast Jag.............at least thats the way I read it. If I'm wrong Socal.............fill in the gaps.

Heh...thanks.

Ya...not just any Jag....fastER is the key!

 

Welcome socal...don't like the s60?

 

Which jag you looking to get into??? The R in your name says s-type R but size of current car says X

 

Definitely R in the current Jag lineup. The new C-XF would be the ultimate for me, but with the release of that, I'm expecting the current supply of S-Type Rs to become readily available and competitively priced. I'm looking at that for my entry to the Jaguar world.

 

Yeah if your looking to go fast go with the r but if you would like a good AWD (All Weather DRIVER) I'd go X. I never realized the price that you could get an s-type r until I looked them up...I've found many on ebay going for 22-24k all with navi and remainder of warranty either to the 50k miles or some with 100k mile warranty! The X is nice here in michigan for winter driving I'll be getting an R once my other car (ford escape) is paid off! That way I'll probably be 24-25 years old and be able to pay nothing to drive the R insurance wise I don't pay much to drive my x but I'd imagine has a lot to do with all the airbags, awd, abs and dsc!

 

BTW how come you are getting rid of the volvo or aren't you? You like that car or not? I like the 60R but the prices on those cars are the same as the s-type R!!!

 

I love the S60R, but the 300 hp I-5 Turbo just doesn't feel like enough punch. I long for a luxurious classic with the rumble of a V8 and 400+ hp. Other cars I've considered as my next upgrade include the CTS-V or really dropping big money in the Mercedes CLS or E series. When it comes down to it though...bang for the buck goes much farther than driving the label. Jaguar's got the best of both worlds IMO.

 

Oh for sure! I look at it this way...how many cadillac's do you see? To me a cadillac can be seen everywhere...doesn't matter how good or bad of an area...my jag on the other hand you don't see anywhere and EVERYONE male or female know what they are! Mercedes don't rank very well with me after seeing what they did with chrysler! Not to mention the reliability is worse on them than jag! Plus the cost of the mercedes make it not worth it...although when you buy one your resale value is higher for both cars over the jag...that could be a good thing or a bad thing...to me you can pay less for the s-type r and get an awesome car and everyone thinks its super expensive but they don't know you can find some for less than 20k dollars or up to 30k...you pay more than 30k and its going to be really new and more than likely a 05 and newer which is sick when the car costs 62k+ when bought new and it is covered til 50k miles!

 

See............told you we got a Jag fan here guys!

One night, a police officer was staking out a particular rowdy bar for possible violations of the driving-under-the-influence laws. At closing time, he saw a fellow stumble out of the bar, trip on the curb, and try his keys on five different cars before he found his. Then he sat in the front seat fumbling around with his keys for several minutes. Meanwhile, everyone left the bar and drove off.
Finally, he was able to start his engine and began to pull away. The police officer was waiting for him. He stopped the driver, read him his rights and administered the Breathalyser test. The results showed a reading of 0.0 The puzzled officer demanded: "how can this be?"
The driver replied: "Because tonight, officer, I'm the designated decoy!"

ahahahha...it';s genius.

u think of that urself jim or just repeating?

 

Just a story 93............just a story....lol

JC

 

Any of you guys thought about adding a few items to your vehicle like for example.
Aluminium tax disc holder c/w Jaguar logo
Jaguar valve caps c/w Jaguar logo on the head

Just a thought. Not sure how many of you have these / or know of them / or were interested?
The tax disc holders give a nice clean classy look for around £12 and the dust caps can be had for around the £5 mark there or thereabouts off Ebay!

JC

 

Just a story, nice one lol

 

here in the states we dont havetax discs, we have to put a little sticker on the rear license plate (well in california thats how it is), and i thought aboutthe valve caps, but havnt found any that wud look good with black wheels, ive only found green ones.

 

If I see any others 04 I'll let you know.
I gotta admit, sorta went a bid mad when I just bought the Jag.
She has a Jaguar umbrella, a Jaguar F1 racing Jacket and a fleece....lol
