Picked up my XJ last night after her visit to the shop. Suprised at how much I missed driving her. To think there are those who will never experience the pure pleasure of driving a Jag. Good, or bad, there's nothing to describe how good it feels when these big cats are running happy.

Just musing... :D

Just musing ? That reminds me of Sharon Stone ;)
I.m glad for you ,nothing is good as a good running Jagwar !

I gotta say guys.........it always sounds soo much better, more expensive ( if thats possible) and much more exclusive when you pronounce it...........JAGWAR!...lol
It really does!

Jim

Yeah, like when I picked up my XK from the tranny shop and expressed a sigh of relief nothing was wrong, followed by "I hope this is the last expense I have on this car for a while", to which the shop Owner ominously replied "Jack, it's a Jaguar!"

I pronounce it Jagwar....My wife the brit...Jag-ewer
Sigh does anyone really know the correct pronunciation on this one??? At Least we all agree on Jag :eek:

Thats true XJ.........uniform the world over.
The landed gentry and monied owners and the working class joes alike call it Jag........a nice abbreviation for all

JC

Perhaps as the namesake Jaguar is a south american cat, it should be pronounced Hagwar as in Juan. :eek:mmm, maybe not!

I live in chicago and here all the idiots say to me, hey nice JAGWIRE.

Wanna go to the jacksonvile jagwires game.

Sometimes us americans just need to learn how to read and pronounce correctly.

I pronounce it JAG-YOU-ARe

LOL,this pronouncing thingy is very funny indeed . It's like calling Broughams in different ways
Once again , Jagwar lol

Oh? you mean Bro Ham? Or perhaps Broam?? ;)

I love it to call Bro ham .Sometimes I just call it Bro .

Well you can call it what ya like, but I'm pretty sure it's Broam it originates in England and refers toa type of 1850's coach with a convertable top. The term is most common with Cadillac as inthe venerable Fleetwod Brogham, although other manufacturers have addedit to give their cars a little class. Sounds better than fake convertable... ;)

I hate those fake convertibles .I see no point of why peoplebothering such a crap thing lol. Oh yes, Fleetwood Broughams have always set the standard of the American AutomotiveIndustry ...Heck more correctly till '96

Sadly cars that set the standards for luxury in the us during the 30's to 50's have all been watered down to a shadow of what they were, take for example, the Imperial, Continental and Eldorado to name a few. Sigh ;)I'd say Jags are better than any of them these days.

Did someone mention Sharon Stone? http://www.fantasyfanbase.com/images/smiles/055.gif

I'm going to take your wifes side and say its pronounced: "Jagewer" Jag U a (Say it farst sorry I mean Fassst) http://www.fantasyfanbase.com/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif

Yes, lol
We can also mention others ;)
