Due to the 10 inches of snow we're getting and winter really getting it on full steam ahead, it will have to wait until the Jag owner's next day off...Monday...oh well

Yes sir!! That was my plans! VPG's were replaced last year but nothing wrong with doing it again. Hoses were replaced last year at the same time as the OSP was being taken care of. This time it's the CCV, oil pan gasket and a few other things to complete the job. Time will tell.

I wish you a lot of good vibes with those jobs for real LOL! It's almost there though and you'll be good to go for some time afterwards!

So the original deal looks like a bust because of too many issues of getting together to make it happen, SMH. On to the next Jag so, I've been combing Craigslist like a beast looking for one who wishes to swap car for car (a lot of X308, XJ40's and S Types out there WOW!)...I may be going to see a Jersey Kitty tomorrow if no one buys it from him today. It's strange when I am looking for a particular car, there are obstacles thrown from all over LOL!! That's just the way it is!

Thanks! Those are my thoughts exactly. Such a beautiful and smooth riding car (even after adding 20's and less sidewall). Oil changes and nice long drives after the job is complete. My Cat is currently taking priority at the moment. Loving her just as much as my Bimmer.

They are addictions for sure.

So, what's the status? Did you pick yours up? Where are the pictures?

I've had 2 deals fall in the trash can! Just a lot of silliness SMH. I'm not having any luck selling my Bimmer or having someone interested in a trade. I'm going to be patient and wait. Folks will be getting tax returns and eventually, someone will buy my car. In the past, selling a Bimmer was the easiest thing to do. My car is bone stock and a not so common color combination which is probably why it's taking so long to move it. That's life I guess LOL!

Well, we all love cars here, so why not show us what you drive now, while waiting to upgrade to the X300? :-)

Nice car. Gotta admit I have a soft spot for the E38. If it wasn't for the XJ series, I would still be driving a BMW 7 series.

Thanks a lot! Yeah the E38 were great cars but, it's time for a Jag! I've been putting it off too long

That's a sharp car. Tell us more (trade?) or share a link to a post for the car?

Thanks! It's for sale or trade. I prefer a trade because that means I don't have to run around looking for a car with a pocket full of cash and I still can't go to the supermarket LOL (XJ6 X300 only) here's the link BUT, cash is good too ....http://reading.craigslist.org/cto/4257480906.html

It looks good. my 95 X300 would probably be a good trade. But, there are too many miles between us.

Cleaning looking E-38. I hope the deleted CL is a positive sign you're getting closer to becoming a new Jaguar owner. Good luck!!
