Default Hello from NZ

Hi,

Like many others no doubt I have spent a bit of time skulking around the forum before introducing myself. Largely because I wasn't sure how long I would own this awesome car as it rarely gets driven.

The previous owner chose the personalised plate and had some excellent photos taken. It is currently a stock 2012 XKR-S, the only mod being I have changed the tires to Michelin PS4S (as a result of reading this forum) which has made it a lot more tractable under acceleration. I am considering going down the Viezu/Paramount Predator 650+ conversion once my warranty expires as it seems like cheap horsepower.

I have owned it for about 15 months now and I live in Nelson, New Zealand.

Welcome to the forums Alex,

Good to have you with us.

A rare model and the X150 most likely to see a serious future rise in value as a collectible.

As you've already found your way to the XK/XKR forum, there's no need for a link to it from me. The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information on regular issues. You can also use the New Zealand Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/new-zealand-97/ to find other members in your region.

Please read the guidance for new members ( https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/n...ned-up-241802/ ) which answers many of the most frequent questions about getting started.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
