My name is Brigham. I just purchased my first Jaguar.
Its a 2007 Jaguar X-Type AWD 3.0 with only 44,000 miles.
I'm a machinist for a company that makes medical implants out of titanium.
I will soon be moving to the Tampa FL area.
Before the Jag I had a turbo'ed VW Passat pushing about 300hp.
I also have a 1986 Pontiac Trans Am 5 speed manual with a 383 stroker.
I have always been a car guy. I do all of my own car maintenance and mods. I love my jag. I have only had it for about 4 weeks and it has been great. My first mod is going to be cross drilled and slotted rotors with ceramic pads.
I do think the brakes on these cars need a little improvement.
I look forward to some spirited gear head conversations on this forum.
