Many thanks Dave. That's a fantastic deal on your insurance. The best I've managed is sub £600. I've not had much opportunity over a very wet weekend to give the car a fair test. I'll get some pics up that I've done on my phone. Next bit is - how?

Hello everyone - my first Jaguar and my first forum membership - I'm hoping that I can gleam new information from you (and hopefully add some). I collect my car this week and wondered if there was a proving ground or facility that Jaguar owners visit for familiarity and handling of their cars. I asked the dealer but he mentioned that it was something that he wished Jaguar did offer. I'm not interested in thrashing the car around a track, however in previous ownerships of M-series BMW's, I was giving a day 'on the track' with a pro driver and met other owners. It proved really useful to know what your car did - knowing that you would actually never drive it like that in reality. Also, I have just come out of company car insurance cover - and so feel that I am being thrashed for new policy private cover. I've bought this car for private use, having giving back my company car. I'd welcome any suggestions from Forum members as to how they jumped that hurdle. Thanks again, I will read previous threads on everything but wanted to get started on the forum. Mike
