Default Greetings from Canada

My wife and I are thrilled to be new jaguar owners. We just purchased a 1995 jxs convertible. My wife's favourite car for a long time and the closest I am going to get to a motorcycle. Looking forward to chatting with other enthusiasts. Will post pictures as soon as I know how!!!!lol

Welcome King19,
Congratulations on the new Jag.
Please post pictures!

Anyone else notice the sudden influx of Canadians on this site?
Are we taking over or is it just so darn cold we have nothing else to do but shiver in front of the computer?

Welcome from a fellow Canadian and Ontario resident! Barrie- the home of Flying Monkey craft beer, one of my favourites.

I think us canajuns are starting to think of spring which is why so many are appearing here.

Barrie--also home of the snow squall! Painful isn't it, to just wait wait wait for spring. Never mind, the folk here will keep the fires burning.

No XJS here. Merely a "fussy for the moment lump". 83 XJ wuzza 6. Guts were sorta close to XJS guts.so, I read on both in this and another forum as well.


But, yikes, the weather gods decided that we in the lower part get some Canadian cold. I do fairly well in heat. Not so well in cold.


So, come on spring DST and all!!!


But, welcome. Good place to read and enjoy. learn as well!!!
