Ok, its been awhile....I was coming back from getting her washed this morning and decided to get a couple shots of her. She hasn't been waxed in awhile, I have the Armor Shield IX (a promotion email from the site here) I'm waiting to put on her. Contracting has been real busy, just no time to put some lipstick on her.

Snapped a pic with the XJ8 and the Z yesterday. It's hard keeping 2 black cars clean but we've had a couple of good weather days recently and could wash them!

Wow, that C5Z06 makes the Jag look small, camera angle and all that I know.

I had a 2003 C5 before my current X308, loved it, but two seats were often a disadvantage, and I also seemed to get a lot of attention from the Highway Patrol.

True, the Z has morphed into more of my day-off driver, but for a while was my DD.

Thanks, I bet your C4 looks solid. Don't know what Fikses you have, but the FM5s look great on the C4s. Love the stable of Jags too

Just wondering how many X-308 owners on this thread use their car as an everyday driver like myself. Also, would you consider buying the new XJ-8 for your next car even though the current models have no styling cues from classic Jaguars. I read on the internet that the next generation of XJ-8 will be all electric. What are your thoughts on that? Since this thread is about sexy X- 308 pictures and I have not had time to take any recent photos of my 1999 White XJ-8, I am posting a nice stock photo I found which I think reiterates the beauty and timeless lines of the X-308.

I don't use my X308 as a daily driver, well, sort of not, I have other vehicles I drive on a daily basis and the Jag can stand in the garage for several days, but I do drive it regularly, and sometimes almost daily. I seem to average about 5,000 miles a year, which actually surprises me as I didn't think I drove it that much!

Discounting the fact that there is absolutely no way i could afford a vehicle the price of the new Jaguars, I have no real desire to purchase one in preference to the beautiful classic Jaguar styling of the X308. I really do believe that the X308 is the last real Jaguar, even the subsequent X350/X358 doesn't have the true classic styling, despite its partial retention of the grill/headlight arrangement.

The light seemed perfect as the sun was setting and I was preparing to put the Jag back in the garage ................but hey, maybe I'm biased!

I use my 2000 xjr as a daily, too beautiful not to drive here in Vegas. I'll be driving my 300sd as soon as my son's car is out the shop, then it'll only come out on the weekends!

Is the photo from Hong Kong? Isn't there a hotel there that uses odd colour British Classics as Hotel Shuttles? Maybe this is an ex Shuttle converted to a taxi.
