Default New proud owner of a 2005 s-type r

Have been attracted to british cars most of my life kinda started as a youngster and well never quite disappeared. Bought my first british car in 1993, a 1976 MGB. Later followed a 1978 TR7 and 1980 TR8. Loved the cars but think I actually spent more time tinkering with them then actually driving them. I suppose that is what made the whole ownership experience so much more fun. I guess it is the styling that I fell in love with and well here I am again as a now 1st time owner of a Jaguar. A 2005 s-type R. What a car, I have owned the car for about a month now and I must say that before the car my 2007 GMC Denali pick-up had my heart but since buying the car I have drove the truck twice. I find myself looking for excuses to drive the thing. Well I am glad to have joined the likes of all whom frequent this forum and hope to meet some new friends along the way.
