New, in Romford

[David Taylor]

Hi all. 

I'm new to JOC, joining after purchasing my second Jag. 

First was a '14 plate XE-Rsport (the eco one), this got written off after a kid smashed into it with his Polo. Have now upgraded to a '16 XF-Rsport, the baby 2.0litre version. Nice and eco, but a good looking car too. Certainly stands out from all the German cars driving around here. This thing is a joy on the motorway and a proper crusier, huge tank and good MPG. Punchy when I need it. 

Need to do a few things to it. Brake discs are looking a bit grotty and easily visible due to the large 5-spoke alloys. Will paint calipers etc. Not planning much else, but this car has me convinced I'll stay with Jags for some time. 

When space and finances allow, I'd love to get something more classic and sporty to accompany this

Welcome to the Club David.

You'll certainly find that the XF has more space behind the Front seats and in the Boot, I've had 3 X Type's which didn't give me any problems.

But i'm really smitten with the XF Portfolio, and i think that you've made the right choice and hope you enjoy your XF.

Regards Tom.

Thanks Tom

I couldn't find a decent portfolio in my price range (and manual). So I've not got the benefit of the folding seats and powered boot-lid. 

But I don't really lug much about in it, so no great loss.
