Smile new to the Jaguar

hello all

just a quick introduction and hello, i have bought my first Jaguar - its an old one but in lovely condition with very few faults or signs of wear. My car is a 2000 , s type 3.0 v6 manual in metallic blue.

no major problems as yet except some front suspension knock over uneven roads and brake squeal but nothing serious, everything works and the car is in lovely condition.

cheers
michael.

Welcome aboard, Michael

A manual trans S-type is interesting to me. Besides the items mentioned how do you like it?

Cheers
DD

Welcome to the forum,

The suspension shouldn't be too big a deal.

Hello Michael and welcome to jaguarforums.com.

If you haven’t already you need to put your car details in your signature. I am speaking of the Year, Make & Model. Without it you may not get the input you are looking for. To do this go to, User CP, Edit Signature, Add Vehicle Details and such and Save Your Signature.

Please take a moment and read the information provided to you explaining the rules. Be patient and enjoy the site.

Also, should you have questions related to your vehicle please post it in the section for your model year (MY) car. This way you will reach all the members that are familiar with your MY car.
