Had it all of 24 hours,, impressed so far.

No doubt will be picking a few of your brains shortly.    Thanks in advance.

I have two sheds in the morning,                                                                                                                                                                     

I have two sheds at night,                                                                                                                                                                                

I have two sheds in the afternoon, it makes me feel all right,                                                                                                                           

I have two sheds in times of peace and two in times of war, etc..

 

Welcome. I won't be any help with XF specific things but do bear in mind that underneath it's basically a late model S-type so much of the information on mechanical parts on here will be relevant.

Nice photo of both the Jag and Humber bridge. Just been over it this morning to take partner to Humberside airport for her flight to Schiphol and then Detroit. The bridge saves a round trip of about 150 miles. Good value at £1:50 each way.

Cheers

Hi,

Great photo of the XF and HB in the background, aswome. (shame is not a 1967 S-Type, with a Bank Robber's stash on the bonnet :winkiss: )

 

I am a new member, just bought one of the very last Jag STR's in silver and black leather,2008 Model,  the one with the smoked LED headlights, 60,000miles one owner, love it - sounds aswome, and sorry but looks like a jag, not an Audi/Volvo Eurobox like the new XF. Geoff Lawson would be turn in is grave with that, but love Ian Mcallums Mark 2 update - yes am a XJ6/S-Type/420G old school fan...Sorry !!

My dad had 5 XJ6's 2 series 2, and 3 series 3's always anted an S-Type R Series 2..so am looking forward to ownership, although !Removed! thing died on me ast night think is alarm/immobiliser issue - AA en route so for y first jag is this a good or bad Oman ?

all suggestions welcome.

It has to be said, that is a terrible photo shop effort.

 

Which bit Ralph ?? lol..  The Bridge is about 1/4 mile from  the dealers,,,  So I assume its a `real ` pic. lol.

Or maybe Hull city council charged me £1.50 to cross over a non existent structure.  :wallbash:

Two sheds seems to me a little like boasting, not as bad as two Jags clearly (not mentioning any names and I'm not talking Prescott...), but still excessive. I suggest you divulge yourself of the excessive shed and be OneShed. You'd probably get a good price for it unless it is full of Dutch chickens.... Nice car though, and glad to see someone has approved it though without my permission!

Photoshopping in the fictional "Humber Bridge" won't convince me it really exists or that there is life north of Watford

 

Thank you for your kind welcome Ron.  appreciated.

Welcome to the Club, John.

Nice looking car which I am certain you will like and enjoy.

Regards,

Peter.

P.S.  I do have two sheds, one is a woodshed and the other is my garden and tool shed!

 

 

 

 

Thank you Peter.    And good to see you taking full advantage of your plural Shed situation.  :yahoo:
