X100s at the All British Field Meet ABFM May 2023

ABFM, Vancouver, BC Canada May 2023
We were in the 'back row' of Jaguars but understandable given the beautiful XK-120, 140, 150s and E-Types present.
My suggestion to the organizers for future events was to separate X100s and X150s from current production F-Types. I think these cars deserve that at least !!
Mine is the 2003 black coupe. My Mothers 3 Step elbow grease shows well at this view but with 188K KMs...she did not compare to her lower mileage beautiful siblings close beside.

The ad picture that made me fall in love.

I don't think it has ever had a front plate.

The rest of the fleet.

Two beauties in one parking lot! Didn't get a shot of them together but Eric (the owner of this xjr100) said we could meet up another time for a few more shots!

Such a gorgeous car!

This one is pretty nice too! Finally got her back on the road after a much too long slumber. Still drives like a dream.

I bought "Stella", XK8, about a month ago after owning a 1997 XJ6L for 20 years and got rid of her at 192K. Purchased Stella with 20K. I could not believe it. Not one ding on her. I look forward to driving her every weekend.

After 3 years with my 2000 XKR I thought I needed a second Jag as a daily driver. 20 years newer and the same amount of power.

Actually no!
I think the I-Pace is boring in grey, but when you buy a used car you cant get everything exactly as you want.
90% of used I-Pace's in Norway are grey, and for me low mileage and performance seats was more important.

It's always fun to run across the occasional photo in a thread but this one is just for our photos!
Maybe if it goes well, it can be a sticky! It would be a great place to remember former and lost members before its too late, as well as the new owners to come!!
