Retirement, that is.

I really, in all conscience can't see me driving my XF-s once I've finished work in a few months time. Althopugh she is, hands down the best car I have ever owned.

So... Electric? Hybrid? A small hatchback for trips to the supermarket? A pox on that 😉

Time to start looking for my retirement car... an XF-R or maybe XF-R S 🙂 Hmm... V8, 5L, Spercharged. Sounds like an ideal retirement present to oneself 🙂

Hi Paul

Now when I retire, I'm thinking, Jaguar F-type R or Nissan GTR, only need two seats

Definately wont be electric, technology not quite there yet

cheers

Hi gents

Personally went with FType, best decision ever, but after 2 years one hip replacement for her indoors,not to mention I started to look like a beach whale when getting out now driving a FPace but really enjoyed those 2 years

Hi Paul,

I'm 67.5, retired about 3y ago, on my second XF-S after years and years of company cars. Highlights were an Impreza turbo, Golf VR6 and, back in the day A Calibra Turbo. Always wanted an XF - first was an impulse buy, a bit too old and needed work, but love it. got my current one (2017 xf-s, loaded with toys, but sadly, no cooled seats). Right now, can't think of anything I'd like to replace it with - and, as you say, certainly not electric (yet!).

Let's see what the future brings!

The final decision is made, assuming it will fit in my garage ( modifications to the garage acceptable), and a kind forum member is going to bring his X351 over soon to see if anything needs doing. She's going to be a XJR575 2018 0r 2019 if I can find one. Following recent surgery, it has become clear that I don't need a wheelchair so full steam ahead 🙂 Having said that, the car I want, with Ivory leather is rarer than hen's teeth, but I've got a few months and £50k to make it so. Insurance isn't that bad either, including pulley mods and a suitable re-map. Plenty of room in the boot for the angling kit as well 🙂 Anybody want a well fettled XF-S Portfolio? Anybody seen a decent XJR575 with Ivory leather for sale?
