Hello All I'm new here, from Oklahoma currently living in Hawaii. Proud-ish owner of a 2001 S-type, that I paid 100$ for.

Welcome to our world.

An S Type for $100, FOR REAL???. That somehow fits with your signature name, HAHA.

And in Hawaii on top of that, JEALOUS is simple not enough.

I definitely want to know what the deal is with this car that it sold for $100. There's gotta be a story there.

Yeah, I'm in the military and a friend left on short notice, the tranny is out at this point(tcc control Soelinoid ) and the trans is in limp mode. Inspection and safety are out so it was going to be towed and scrapped. I offered him what the scrap guy was to keep this pretty thing together.

Default Welcome to Jaguar Forums

Welcome Mr Criminal; greetings from another jealous Australian ... and I don't care about the story or who you left back in that dark alley (LOL) ... we won't squeal ... HONEST !!!



What a great start to a project car! The S-Type Jaguar will not disappoint because the surefooted road-holding and quiet comfort built into the car is legendary - even in the early variants. To help you decide on trans rebuild/replace/upgrade, you will find plenty of resources, advice and shared friendship here ... so dive in and enjoy.

Best wishes,
Ken
