Default My New Jaguar

Hi All, very please to have taken delivery of my new car today. It's a 2010 XKR 5.0 supercharged in liquid silver. Looking forward to being part of this forum and part of the Jaguar family. Please check out my albums for some pix.

Congratulations! You'll soon become addicted to paddle shifting. I like the upgraded hood vents and liquid silver combo, I may have to switch.

Cheers, looks great. I've got that one's twin on the Gold Coast, though I've done some cosmetic stuff to it...

Nice... you are going to find that you are now more than happy to run to the store for milk and bread. Good luck wiping the perma grin off your face as you run through the gears. Enjoy.

Welcome to the Forum and to the small XKR family. Hope you will have great luck with the car and enjoy it as much as I do mine. Gorgeous combination!

I am less than a week from ending the lease on my XJL and returning it to Jaguar. That will make the XKR my daily driver, to which I am looking forward to.

Default Retractable Front License Tag

Very nice!

But the front tag ruins the look. Maybe this stealth automatic retractable bracket from Amazon for $119.55 will work for you. But check the user reviews and decide for yourself:
Amazon.com: Show N Go Electric Powered License Plate Frame - Shows & Hides Automatically with Remote Key Fobs: Automotive Amazon.com: Show N Go Electric Powered License Plate Frame - Shows & Hides Automatically with Remote Key Fobs: Automotive



Search YouTube for many videos.

I am looking at this for my 2010 XKR, but I was wondering where the best place to connect the electrics is, any suggestions?

I went with the manual version, as i thought all of those parts were much too complicated. I'll leave my manual "tucked away" until the the Constable nabs me, at which, time I'll let him/her know, with apologies of course, I forgot to flip 'er up!
