Default Always wanted a Jag...

And now, well into my fifth decade, I have one. We just purchased a 1997 XJ6 Vanden Plas, about 67K miles. The car is in beautiful condition, a blast to drive, and by far the best looking ride on the road. At this time, a month into ownership, I am still obsessed with finding and fixing every little problem I can uncover on the car. What a great place the internet is, where no matter what hobby or avocation you can come up with, you can find and hook up with a community of like minded folks.

Default Welcome

I also wanted a Jaguar for a long time. From the XKEs of the 60's to the current crop of truly beautiful motorcars...

Once I decided to take the plunge I searched for three long years to find "just the right one."

and I did...

There is now an indigo blue XK convertible outside my window.....

Welcome to the forum and good luck. I know I am confident that with all the help here there's not much that we cannot do with our cars.

Hello and welcome to jaguarforums.com. I know that you are anxious to get started and we are anxious to meet you and talk about your car. We have a baseline / criteria that must be met before full access can be granted. Please enjoy the forum and be patient once the baseline has been satisfied full access will be granted. Please continue to post and accept my welcome to the forum.

If you haven’t already you need to put your car details in your signature. I am speaking of the Year, Make & Model. Without it you may not get the input you are looking for. To do this go to, User CP, Edit Signature, Add Vehicle Details and such and Save Your Signature.

Please take a moment and read the information provided to you explaining the rules. Be patient and enjoy the site.

Also, should you have questions related to your vehicle please post it in the section for your model year (MY) car. This way you will reach all the members that are familiar with your MY car.
