Default A quick introduction....

Hi all, The name's Barry, just got myself a 2005 x-type a few months back and given that it was my first Jaguar, I was a bit aprehensive at first. After nearly four months and many a happy hour of driving later (first car that i've owned that I actually look forward to red lights so I can sit in it a bit longer!) I have decided to take the next brave but tentative step of tinkering around a bit!


I am and always have been very technically minded and have always strove to help others in BMW, Audi and Alfa Romeo forums, I look forward to meetng as many of you as possible, racking your brains and if possible, helping out aswell!


See ye inside!!!


Barry

The very best way to get to know your car is to explore it a bit; tinkering, as you say.

Barry,

I've checked in our Moderator Control Panel and there were no details showing in your Signature. I've added "2005 Jaguar X-Type". This should appear automatically after your next post.

Thanks for that Graham, although I was refering to the little avatar that should appear beside my name on the top of the posts, not a biggie by any means, just irksome!
