Hello there. My name is Roy. I'm a Jaguar fanatic, previously owned a Silver 3 ltr S Type - gorgeous long-legged cruiser. Currently own a 2001 XK8 and a 2009 XF. The XK8 was Jaguars' publicity car when new and featured in numerous brochures. It (was) Anthracite grey/black metallic, oatmeal trim with almost every goodie possible fitted. New Jaguar factory fitted engine 34,000 miles ago. I've had it 3+ years and it has a lifetime warranty as long as I keep the car - which I intend doing. It was recently wrapped in the Gulf racing team colours and had a brand new set of Raceline black wheels and orange callipers at the same time. Some will say Aaarrgghhh..... It get praising comments and admiring looks everywhere I go in it - I love it. It's a weekend and good-weather car and only does around 500-1000 miles per year. I bought the XF for my wife when I retired 10 months ago. It's the Premium luxury model, in Emerald Fire green with Barley leather. It has just about all the extra's. I build large scale model Jaguars now as a hobby, and for commission. Currently completing a 1/8 1954 Le-Mans C Type with full engine detail. BTW..... The model is scratch-built - NOT a kit. Jags - Can't beat 'em. Roy.
