Hey all. Have been reading these forums as a resource since buying my 05 X-Type in 2010. After that car was turned into a hood ornament by a lane-drifting, side-swiping, but apologetic nice guy trucker on I-95, I settled for a 03 S-Type 3.0 Base in British Racing Green. Having fixed four minor issues in the first two days of ownership, I thought it might be time to register on the site. Perhaps post some questions. East Tennessee here, the land where Jaguars are few, far between, generally a bit over-priced for used Jags later than '02 (in my opinion), and you're lucky if the one Jaguar dealership in the area will see you and repair your car in less than a month (well, okay, to be fair, it only took then a week to repair an airbag sensor the last time... ).

Welcome and if you can hold a spanner, you'll be doing your own repairs (not too many I hope) in no time. Happy motoring!

Welcome to the forum jagastruckerhoodornament,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar Forums.

Follow Norri's link to the S-Type forum for help, advice and information. The HOW TO thread at the top there is a good place to start for info 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.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham

Welcome. sorry about the trucker, I know that had to hurt. I just posted in the NC, SC regional section about the Tail of the Dragon.Eastern Tennessee sounds like you could be close to it? I would love to see a "JAGS ON THE DRAGON" this year. Welcome, tons of info on here and everyone is ready to help.
