Got rid of the 2011 XKR Vert today... Traded it in on somepin else... Anyone want to buy my wind deflector? Make offer - it's black and has been used for 1.8 years or so.

I'm going to miss that girl... they just replaced her dash gratis too...

 

MEANWHILE!!! I just gave birth to a BRAND NEW F-TYPE!! V8-S BABY - She's a WIKKED PISSA! I Love LOVE LOVE her! My wife is gonna KICK MY ***!!! I just went down to test drive on the day they came in to South FLorida... I got a block from the dealer, turned around and said WRAP IT UP LARRY!

 

Haha, what a fake-out! Sorta!

Congrats on the F-Type!!!! Did you take delivery already?

P.S. technically it's not RIP XKR if the XKR isn't totaled or destroyed! Someone else will enjoy it!

 

You got me! Congrats, and I'm envious.

 

I take it your a winter bird that set up a permanent nest in Florida. When conversing on a national forum such as this you should provide a translation when speaking in in the New English

That being said, your new Cah is Wikked Pissah! Have a ton of fun and just be caehful weeh ya pahk!

PS Please post some pics in this section, don't just drop us like thuhd period gym class...

 

We need pics!

 

Went down for a test drive (Alpine Jag - Larry Garber- best and oldest Jag salesman on the planet) and took one home off the floor... No great photos yet but here's one from the garage last night... 2 early drama moments - the neighbor's kid was looking at it, let him take it out for a test drive - he came back, im standing in the garage with a Gin/Tonic looking down at a crease in the seat and for no good reason my glass just breaks - the bottom falls right off and into the car along with 25% of my drink... no shattered glass, the thick bottom just separated from the glass... So, I'm pissed of course, cleaning ice and what gin hasn't evaporated into the carpet - Move passenger seat forward, and assume seat belt guide on shoulder of seat is magnetic like the XKR - give a gentle but firm tug and the plastic Torx screw holding bottom of strap just rips right out of car... Plastic screw threaded into plastic female coupling - So, now I've dropped a drink into my few hours car and disproved my Tata statement that was only 20 min old... sheeeet...

 

 

Wow. Just gorgeous! You'll have to get some better pics than that!

 

Congrats!...

You broke it already! Hahaha

But seriously? A plastic screw? That's a first... I wonder what other surprises are lurking. Good luck beta testing.

 

And we lost ventilated seats...but the rest of the cockpit is a great upgrade and will likely be on next year's XK...anyone want to buy my windscreen? First $100

 

Damn, what a waste of a good G&T.

Congratulations on the F Type, I'm fairly sure that this is the first home garaged example I've seen on the forum.

 

And here's a link to the smallish album? I think Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum - SkipM's Albums

 

very nice - congrats!

 

First F-Type on the forum? Congrats. Loving the color combination.

 

That looks great. I also really like that color combo- white exterior, red int, and dark rims

 

I sent you a PM yesterday. I'll take the wind screen. I'm local so we just need to work out a time..

 

Very Very nice. Many smiles ahead. Congrats.

 

It really looks fantastic in white!

You don't need no stinkin' ventilated seats. It's supposed to be a sports car! And people wonder how it ended up being 3800 lbs...

 

I don't see the PM however the windscreen is at Alpine Jag so if you drop off $100 with Larry Garber, I'll instruct him to give it to you. Email me at Middleton AT inbox.com
