Hi all. I'm brand new here and looking to get into the Jaguar community. I have a nice stable of BMW's, M3, M5, 740 and a M Z3, but I've always had a yearning for a Jag.
I don't want to start any wars here, but I'm not that fond of the "new" styling. I DO however, absolutely LOVE the older (and I'm not that familiar with the model types) Jags like the Sovereigns, XJ, XS, Van Den Plas, etc. (sorry if I've made any mistakes).
I would very much appreciate any information or links to resources so I can decide on which model I would like, as well as what to watch out for, etc.
My first experience was with a new XKE when I was 17. A totally hot 25 or so year old neighbor lady asked me and a buddy to take her car into the dealership for service. It was amazing. Could barely take it out of 2nd gear! To her the car was a lemon - all kinds of electrical problems and they ended up replacing the entire wiring harness. But still, what a beautiful car! I was hooked. Once I was able to afford nice cars I never really considered buying one because of all the negative comments I heard about problems, quality control, expense of repairs, etc. Whether this is true or not, I don't care any more. I can afford one now and I've got to have one. Love is stupid I guess.
Thank you all in advance for any help and advice.
Cheers
