Default Sold my Jag

Hello everyone. I regret to inform you I have sold my beautiful '308. I hate that I had to sell it, if I had it anyother way I would not have. But, I have college coming up and need to get better mpg, and less expensive repairs.

I will miss my Jag so much, but if something were to break ( trans, ect ) during school, I would not be able to pay for it. I'd rather have the Jag to go to someone who has a steady income to pay for those future expenses.

The Jag is going to a good home to a very nice couple in Nevada, so I'm happy she's going to them.

My Jag has gotten me through the toughest years of high school, and she made it through my sub par teenage driving skills. I learned to drive in it, impressed my friends ( and teachers ) and so much more.

I will never forget it, and maybe one day after college and my career is stable, I'll most definitely buy another '308 ( maybe even my same one )!

I will still be on the forums looking at those sexy '308 pictures, and contributing. I'd like to thank everyone for the help on issues, and overalll friendliness.

Thank you and see you around the forums! Remember, Grace, space pace.

- Pilotman

Sorry to hear it had to go but a wise decision in the circumstances.

I think we can be 100% certain there'll be other Jaguars in your future.

Mate

You'll never get them out of your system.

Go and have fun, enjoy the college years and then make some big bucks and come back and buy them all!

More power to you young man!

Was looking forward to meeting you on the upcoming Napa run. Probably the best decision for now.
GOOD LUCK.

Probably a sensible decision, but these Jags have a habit of getting under your skin, once bitten, you can never really get rid of the bug.


Well, good luck with your studies, and future career, we will see you again, some time in the future.
