Talking Hello all!

Hi, My name is Fiacre & I am a car nut (the first step healing is to admit it) . I just picked up a 2007 XKR portfolio last weekend. My wife has been at my to change my 350Z for some time for something 'sensible' with back seats for the kids. So I did... I am living in Dublin, Ireland & looking forword to catching up on all the Jag gossip!
Thanks,
Fiacre

Welcome to the forum!

Oh one other thing 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.

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

Fiacre,

As your kids get older you might have to let them ride in the XKR one at a time and sit side saddle.

Hi Fiacre, and welcome. Gretings from a fellow (taxed to the hilt) Irish motorist. I drive a 1997 xj6 (x300) and would love to try and organise a mini meet sometime in the summer for our few Irish members. I recently relocated from Kerry to the midlands, so I'm a little nearer to Dublin now, though it was originally my homeplace. Anyway, enjoy the forums and all the help available and keep in touch.
