Default New Member - 05 Jaguar S-Type "R" - Rochester, NY

HI...

New Member from Rochester NY, First time Jaguar owner, but not new to British cars.

2005 Jaguar S-Type "R"
Exterior: Ebony
Interior:Champagne
4.2L V8 Supercharged

Options
Navigation

Miles: 88000

Have all records from previous owner from Jaguar dealer, from new to 88000.
All services were done at Jaguar dealer.

I need to check if any TSB's are outstanding.


I have had it a few days and enjoy driving this car. Smooth power delivery, the supercharger really kicks when you want / need it.

The ride is very nice and the cabin is well made, no creaks or squeaks and very little noise at highway speeds.

I have not had the chance to get on some twisty roads, but I can't wait. Sunday I will have the chance too!

Welcome to the forum Vampyre,

Sounds like a cracker with all the records etc intact. You'll get plenty of advice from the R guys in the S type section.

welcome Vamp. Really active S-type group here in general...and SuperCharged guys in particular. Keep pinging around to get your post count up and you'll soon find what a true gem this forum is. Careful though..it can be addictive.

Default Hey - my neck of the woods!

Hey Vamp, I am a new Jag owner as well from Rochester/Henrietta area. I just got my first Jag, a 96' XJ6 British Racing Green.
The S-type is one of my favorite newer Jags. Congrats man!

I had a chance a week or so back to get my down E. Henrietta Rd towards the Macedon (I believe still new to Roch) area and the roads that way are perfect for getting out on the new car & getting it some gas!

Cant wait to see some pictures! & Welcome!
