New member--2nd generation Jag lover
Hello all......
My name is Jimmy, from the Pacific NW, Seattle area...My Dad had a 1957 Mark VII (?) that I just found pictures of (I will post them soon)...My first Jaguar was a 1997 Black XK8 Coupe, it was a wonderful car that I traveled all over the Southern US on business in. I put 70k on it without a hiccup, unfortunately, it was stolen right right out of my driveway in 2008, never to be seen again.........
In 2010, I purchased my dream car, a 2003 Black XKR Coupe. I searched for 6 months all over the internet, finally found it in Santa Cruz, California. I flew down 3 days later, and drove it back the same day! A great trip! The improvements were VERY evident, it has been an amazing car (until last month, more to come).
By the way, I pulled into the local Jag dealership about 2 months ago (drivning the XKR), the salesman immediately handed me the keys to a 2014 F-type Supercharged V8! My buddy and I drove it around for an hour with the loudest exhaust I have ever heard. My hands were shaking when I gave the keys back, you all should try it, too!! (no plans to purchase, just an afternoon of fun) Anyhow, I am glad to be here, I really need some good advice on this situation I am in (more to follow)....THANKS!
