Default Sold The XK Thanks For Several Years Of Forum Enjoyment

As the thread title states, I have ended a great episode of car ownership with the XK. I purchased an F Type S and have begun a new chapter. Said another way, I'm not totally gone, I've simply moved next door.

On a personal note, my wife kids me about not be emotional. Well, yesterday I dispelled that myth while watching the XX in the rear view mirror of the F Type as I exited the dealership.

In one sense, the F Type is quite different however, the Jaguar smell, look and feel remain. This, in and of itself, makes the transition a bit easier to manage.

If it's okay with you, I would like to "drop-in" from time to time...

Dave

Congrats on the new ride Dave. You are welcome back anytime. You haven't left the neighborhood you just moved next door.

Dave, I know you will enjoy the F-Type; after-all it's a Jaguar. Congratulations and stay in-touch here.

Did you get the IRR, TD? Congratulations, you'll look good in it. IRR is a very elegant color. Enjoy...

We'll miss you and congrats on your new F Type.

I kinda' got a hunch you'll be back here on the XK/XKR side with your new to you one in a year or two.

Enjoy and please do keep us updated with your thoughts on the F Type.

Best regards,

When I see pictures of your new F and then see pictures of various Porsches I got to think "what are those Porsche guys smoking?"
