Hello everyone!
My name is Rick, In Amarillo, Texas
I am grateful for the opportunity to be apart of this group and I am looking forward to contributing and sharing with everyone here. I am new to Jaguar ownership. I recently purchased my first Jaguar, it is a 1999 XJ8. I successfully acquired it thru auto auction for $3900 and had it it shipped to me. It is in Immaculate condition with 65k original miles. One owner garage kept with multiculus maintenance and repair records. It drives and handles beautifully. I have wanted a Jag for years and I am very proud to finally have this opportunity to own such a fine automobile.
