Hey guys I plan on starting Jaguar XK XKR Owners Meet And Greet Boston Summer Rally this summer on July 28th meet up location and route TBD sometime this weekend. I know theres a lot of forum members in New England area this would be a great time to celebrate as one big unit. As long as you own a Jaguar you are welcome to join this will be open to everyone. The plan is to have as many Jaguars showing up to the event as possible. So if you like to join please send post on here or send a PM and I will start a list and lets get this in motion. Thanks

 

Can I show up in my XE R Sport since Aston is not welcome?

 

You can bring your Aston you are welcome to join. Hope your able to meet with us. Thanks

 

Heres the plan we will all meet at 1pm Saturday July 28th we will ride along the Arborway heading towards downtown Boston give us the ultimate tour of Boston. This event is for anyone who has a Jag please spread the word. If you wish to join please pm me or reply to this thread. Thanks

Meet up location inside the parking lot

Wendy’s
530 American Legion Hwy
Boston, MA 02131

 

Is that in West Roxbury?

 

Thats located in the Roslindale section of Boston. From here we have easy access to the Arborway so we can start our cruise towards downtown Boston.

 

Spread the word thanks !!!!!

 

I'm thinking of making the 8hr drive down from Ottawa I've only had my '07XKR for a month and need to stretch its legs!

Only 66k km (39k miles) on my "new" toy July '18.

 

Please come and join us it will be an amazing event. I like your coupe btw. Thanks

 

Just a few questions, but sounds like a good time if nothing else planned.
1. Do you own all the different types of Jags you have posted for the Boston meetup about this event? XJs, Ftypes, etc. all converging at Wendy's on the same date?
2. What's the plan after heading toward Boston from the Arborway? Not familiar with the area. Turning around and going back to Wendy's or trying to drive down Newbury St?

Thanks!

Hey thanks for the questions. The reason this was posted everywhere is because this event is open to all Jaguar owners. The plan is we will meet up at meet up location then go on a route touring Boston we will eventually close the event near downtown Boston at a nearby restaurant. Please come out and join us and spread the word. Thanks

 

The selection of restaurants in Boston that have enough parking is quite slim.

 

That's why I was wondering if this was a circular drive back to Wendys

 

There are a few restaurants near downtown Boston to accommodate 20-30 cars after cruising around the city to conclude the event with free parking. Either TGI Fridays in Brigham Circle, 99s Restaurant in Charlestown, Olive Garden & Applebees in South Bay, etc.

 

A little off-topic, but how do you like that XE? I was thinking about getting one. Also, to you have AWD? If so, how is it?

 

Yes, the SC V6 XE with AWD. Car is a beast, very powerful acceleration and amazing handling. Better performer than my XK was by a country mile. Ventilated seats work incredible. Powerful AC. Inside materials vary in quality. Seat is really comfy. Not much trunk space. Seems like the XE and Giulia are the go to sedans for those who want to drive.

 

Update we have about 15 attendees so far please spread the word. Thanks

July 28th @ 1pm and join us this event is open to all Jag owners

Due to family in town, I'm no longer able to attend - have a great event!

 

The AWD is more natural driving than it was in my old WRX. No noticeable bump steer, but front end feels a little heavier than it probably could. Biggest complaint on the XE is all the dirt that gets into the rear door jams. Never seen anything like it and everyone that owns an XE says the same thing.

 

Next Saturday Guys !!!!!!!
