Hi everyone,

I am sitting here patiently for my ride to show up so I can go pick up my new-to-me Jaguar X-Type.

I have been a Pontiac fan for a few (3) decades, and currently drive a '95 Formula Firebird. It is not the greatest thing for hauling two young boys around in. Also, the weather in Cinci gets pretty bad in the winter time, and the Firebird is no snow cruiser. So, I am pretty excited about the awd of the Jag.

Not a whole lot to say now, but I imagine I'll be back to join in on some threads after I have had the car a few days.

Tony

"Baby...If you ever wondered; wondered whatever became of me... I'm livin' on the air in Cincinnati..."

Seriously though, Tony - welcome to the forum and welcome to your new car. You should find lots of encouragement and pointers for keeping your Jag on the road even through the winter months.

All the best!
Scott

Thanks for the welcome.

I have been buzzing around town in my "new" Jag, but haven't had time to get pictures yet.

I'll take some tomorrow and post them.

I am seriously enjoying the Jaguar. Not as fast as the ole firebird, of course. but, that's not why I bought it!

More tomorrow.

OK, it rained yesterday, so I had to wait until today to get some more pics. It looks green in one and black in the rest.

Both cars look great - grass needs cutting.

Welcome, I am new member in Ohio too! Good luck with new Jag, looks great! Like the bird too. Graham is too funny, what's better cruising in Jag or cutting grass? Of course Buckeyes on now! What color is it, black or green?

Both cars are green. Yeah, the grass needs cut. We've had a lot of rain around here lately and... well, I've been lazy!
