Default Never Thought I'd Own a Jaguar

I was on the market a few months back for a project car after my old project (05 Cadillac STS with the enamored Northstar) died in a T-bone. I live up around Boston Ma, so I wanted something venerable in the snow. Like my old Deville and Eldorado. Catch the trend?
but then I passed this old carnival red jag and I actually stopped. Something about the car. Aside from the fact that I dont see x300. Or x305/8s for that matter. But what a gorgeous vehicle. Its stately. Curvy and Sleek at the same time. It's not often I see such an elegant for sale with that price tag.For $800 usd she was mine. I felt good. I didnt feel so good after what I spent for what ended up being transmission/shifter/cable realignment and servicing, very in depth tune up, intake manifold replacement, brakes/brake lines, various lights, and radio mast.
BUT she's both gorgeous and bulletproof.

Welcome to teh Forums.

We are always lulled into situation "we own a Jaguar"

NOPE

The "Jaguar owns you", oh what a feeling.

Good luck

Hello,
Congratulations on your new Jaguar!
There's usually a reason someone sells a car, often more than one reason. I hope you found all the reasons your Jaguar was so, um, Reasonably Priced. It IS quite Stately.

Welcome to the forums from ElinorB.
