Hello All,
Signing on from Southern NH and I can't wait to get started and to meet all of you. I am married with three adult sons and I am a first time Jaguar owner. After many years of wanting one I finally decided the time was right. I have a 2001 XK8 Convertible with cashmere interior and BRG exterior that I knew early on whatever Jaguar I purchased was going to have those colors.

I have a lot to learn and I admit I have been creeping (my sons words) on this site for a few months now getting up the courage to join the technology age. Please be patient with me my skills on the computer and with the terms used in social media like blog, posts, threads, etc. are all new to me, let alone trying to remember where to post, update and my log in in information:-)

In addition to the technology part I am also enjoying learning the language of Jaguar, British slang and terminology from all of you. I look forward to interacting with the forum and can't wait to get started.

Our first outing in the car was a long weekend trip to Bar Harbor Maine to visit with our son who is a Chef so sea food and Lobster were a must. We left early Saturday morning and drove coastal route one with the top down what a great time.

Thank you all in advance for being patient with me until I come up to speed.

A warm welcome!

You will find that your life situation, including the love of Jaguars, fits right in with a large number of folks on the forum.

I did 200 miles through the NC mountains yesterday on a clear blue sky 65 degree day. Life's tough.

Welcome aboard and glad you joined the conversation.

You will find the members on here to be very helpful and friendly. Best forum I have found for both useful info and a minimum of unfriendly chatter.

You will love the Jag most days and the other times will just give you some good stories to tell.

Welcome to the forum JAGNIT,

Only one mistake with your first post - no photos!

That sounds absolutely wonderful. I'm green with envy.
