I don't have a favorite picture, because I haven't taken many pictures of my XKR yet...
Guess I've been too lazy. :P

Here's the two together for the first time:

Default On the Beach

Howdy folks:
Some of you have seen this before but it is my favorite. On the beach at Daytona during my 1885 mi road trip in May. (Yeah, the umbrella was standard with the hi speed hubcaps and double-action ashtray package)

I saved your pic to my hard drive. You can really see the effect of all the styling tweaks Jaguar carried out between the very first XKs and the run-out models.

My favorite pictures are from our biggest road trip - Chicago to Yellowstone and the Tetons. Great trip, great scenery and great car!

Wow, this is just about perfect: wife (I assume), blue sky, Jag, mountains, snow, trees, lake... Life doesn't get much better than that!

A bit dark, but I'm quite fond of the setting here

These are from my garage (The only pics I have so far):





While I was taking these pics a guy walked by and asked how much is it going to go for? He obviously thought I was selling it. I just told him half a million. After the jaw-drop expression he gave me I told him I had just bought it. Lol

If you want to do something other than thumbnails you have to put your photo on a hosting site. I run my own home server so I do it from my own server but there are several photo hosting places that are free. After your photos are on a hosting site you right click on the photo and select "copy image location". Then you click on the little icon on your post that kind of looks like a mountain which opens up a box where you input the link where your picture is hosted. Just do a ctrl V to input that link. Hope that makes sense. I am not always the best at explaining. Maybe there is an easier way.

Hi there, here's my favorite picture of my new favorite car. This is just a quick snap taken by my sister, I haven't gotten around to even washing it yet, let alone try for some photo-ops. That's my smiling face on my first full day of ownership.

Nothing to keep you busy like lots of toys. Especially His and Her Jaguars. And on the side a little flying machine.

Here is a small collection:

front shot and departure from the 2009 version of the annual "British European Auto Tour" (Phoenix, AZ to Flagstaff, AZ)

And I had to throw in my own Grand Teton pic from my longest road trip - Phoenix, AZ to Rapid City South Dakota and back.
