G'Day David glad you joined.

Xs are a great buy at the moment and probably the best bang for your buck around.

If you feel like fine tuning your location would be great,it's a big island.

Don't be a stranger on here,it's has a wealth of info if you need it.

Congratulations on the Jag and most of all Enjoy! Cheers,Neil

live in the Barossa Valley Wine area of South Australia but work in Adelaide at BMW - Adelaide Premium Vehicle site . Drive some nice cars as company vehicles but the Jag X seemed a good purchase at a reasonable price to have something different at home. It is in above average condition but i will work on it over time as a hobby to bring up to a standard i want it to be. There isnt too much in Adelaide in the way of Jag techs so may need some help from time to time.

Nice spot.
I worked in a vineyard at Nuriootpa pre licence days for a picking season. Long time ago though. That would be a few Ks return trip every day,may as well do it in comfort.

And we all need help from time to time,Jags too. I wasn't aware Beemer had a site in SA,live and learn. Good Luck with it David.

Welcome David

I hope you get some value out of being on the forum and can get involved in whatever the SA crew conjure up.

Nice part of the world over there, we try to get over (Hills and McLaren Vale mainly) every few years.

Hello, David,
Congratulations on your 'new' Jaguar.
You might be surprised to know how many new Jag owners intend to only drive it on weekends but fine it such fun to drive it soon becomes their first choice as a daily driver.
Welcome to the forums from ElinorB.
