Default Dying to drive my Jag

Hello everybody. My name is Chris and I live about 25 miles outside of Chicago. At the end of October I bought a 2011 XKR175 with 1,400 miles on it. This is my first 'fun' car. I drove it for 2 weeks then put it in storage for the winter. My last 3 everyday cars have been SUVs. Right now I'm driving a 2008 Acura MDX. Really looking forward to some nice weather soon and learning more about Jags on this forum.

welcome and enjoy the board, watch for potholes once you take it out. It will not be as forgiving as the SUVs when you hit one.

Hi Chris, Welcome to the forum! First warm day, where are you going to take the XKR? Wisconsin Dells or Blackhawk Farms Raceway? :-)

Cheers,

Don
