New S-type Owner and Member

Hello everyone! I live in South Florida and recently purchased a 2002 Silver Jaguar S-Type3.0. I was looking around for Jaguar forums and liked this one the best. I have already made a few mods to the car and am looking forward to making more. Here are a few pics......

Welcome 02. Nice looking whip, and I really like the trunk spoiler thing, which the name escapes me right now. What's up with the tag in the front of the car though? I too am from South FL, and I guarantee that that tag isn't one required.

The front British tag is just something I saw someone with and I thought it looked different. The rear spoiler is the S-Type R spoiler. There is a shop in Fort Lauderdale that sells it and paints it for you.

congrats and welcome! I'm also from FL, you also have the R wheels (are they factorys or replicas?) to match the spoiler, saw you took the badges off but didnt put R on, good choice not to fake it

Those are OEM Rwheels purchased on Ebay. I like the R look but I know that I don't have that model so I don't fake it completely.

Nice ride! It seems I'm not the only one withGB plate numbers

I want to ask you something.Did you make any changes to your suspension and if yes please tell me what did you change. I want to change my springs and struts and I don't know what struts to use,I kinda made up my mind about the springs.
thanks

Welcome to the forum.
It may say GB on the side but looks like a German plate to me!
I was glad that I didn't need a front plate in AZ

I purchased the grill inserts from jaguarxp.com. I had to cut out the oem grill and then insert the black grill.
Here is a link to the item.......

I have not modified the suspension yet. I was looking at the Mina Gallery springs on jaguarxp.com. I have the CATS struts so I want to make sure not to mess them up with the wrong springs.

The plateis the new EECplates in circulation. All European plates now look alike.
Here is a link to the site where I purchased the GB plates.
