Default Hi from down under

Hello everyone.I've been a jag owner for thirteen years now. I wanted some thing different to the norm and I've always had a facinaction for jags. They first came to my attention when they lined up at Bathurst 1000 and subsequently the 500 street race here in Wellington. Yes I'm living here down under in NZ.
My first jag was an XJS 3.6 1990. I purchased it in 03 and just sold it.
I also have an s type 4.2 which I've owned for 4 years.
With the XJS gone I've purchased a XKR X100. It was a hard choice between the X100 or the X150 but the curves of the X100 won me over. The car is in copper black and looks stunning (in my eyes anyway)

I've had various car faults over the years on all of the models and this forum has certainly been a fantastic source of infomation over the years in resolving issues. Without this forum my wallet would certainly be a lot lighter and I've gained so much more knowledge. Happy to contribute where I can.

Welcome to the forum NZxkr,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

A Final Series 4.2-S is a rarity in Europe so it must be very special in NZ.

Follow this link XK8 / XKR ( X100 ) - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to the XK8/XKR forum and this one S-Type / S type R Supercharged V8 ( X200 ) - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to the S-Type forum for help, advice and information.
The 'HOW TO' thread at the top of each is a good place to start for information on regular issues.

Please remember to add vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. Go to the User CP button on the left of the top menu bar, then Settings & Options under Your Control Panel. Select Edit Signature and enter the details.

You can also visit the New Zealand Region forum by following this link New Zealand - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum
to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
