Cool Hello from Iowa

Hello I am now the proud owner of a 2005 X-type. I couldn't be happier with my purchase. It is a beautiful black premium addition and the features are fantastic. I am a social worker and I have to spend a decent amount of time driving around town. The AWD is great in the winter (as well as the heated seats). I have already gained a wealth of information from this forum and I am sure that I will utilize it for years to come. We are still dealing with some cold weather and periodic snow storms here in Iowa so I have yet to give my Jag a full detail. Once it warms up I will make her spotless and post pictures.

Hello and welcome,

Great choice for comfort and testing road conditions. Hope it warms up soon and you can get down to some serious detailing.

Welcome to the forum. You should find that AWD useful in a Des Moines winter, but with winter tyres on even better.
