Only 1/2 year? I bought new O2 sensors for my car. One day I realised the car had been idle in the garage for 2 years waiting for me to get round to fitting them! Then there was the rear seal on the trans, exhaust pipe, radiator mounts......

56. I love it. And the taxes are super super cheap here in SC. 31.00 a year, lol.

52 years old here but not my first Jag. My first was a series 1 XJ6 back in the 80's. I've owned several series 1 cars,a few XJ-S,a series 3 XJ6,a series 1.5 E-type,'59 Mk 1,66 S-type,67 420 and now this XJ6 (X300) and my XJS.

59, this is my first and probably only Jag I got it back in 1999 for my wife. At first I didn't really like it as I had two BMW 7's but it's kind of grown on me as it looks so classic now compared to everything else out there. I do some of my own work, but I have a good garage within walking distance and with the help of this forum I keep it going. I was talking to a friend of mine last week and he asked me about the condition and I said it was stable, he started laughing and said that sounded like a person. Anyway there is always something to fix, but the engine and tranny seem to be bullet proof and there is nothing better than taking it out for a blow out run on the highway...........

58 love my xk8 and just got a xj6 to fix up for the wife .

I'm 43 , have owned 7 Jaguars in total ( '89 xj6 2.9 / '90 xj sport 3.2 / '72 mk2 xj6 / '77 mk3 xj6 / '96 x300 xj Executive / '95 x300 xj6 and a 2001 S'Type 3.0 Sport ) .. Love the Jaguar brand , Paul

58 and refuse to grow up. I wanted an XKE since I could remember, 1972 I told the local dealer I was going to have one. I was 14. At 18 I drove the Boss' XJS and was blown away. Life and kids got in the way, about a year ago I got my own XJS and i'm in the process of stuffing a 600+ hp 460 Ford down it's throat. I'm to young to go slow, and with a last name Like "Shelby". it just seems natural to shove a big Ford V8 into a British sports car. Hence the name Jacobra!

The calendar says I am 69. My head says 55.

Been driving Jags since I bought a 1982 XJ6. Drove it for thirteen years then gave it to my son who drove it through high school, college, and med. school. Bought a 1995 X300 in '95 and still have it and drove it today. Three years ago I bought a '96 VDP b/c it only had 93K miles.

So I'm very high on Jags. Especially the X300.
