Hello friends. I have found some very useful information on your forums and joined today, even though I am not in the UK. Please don't hold it against me as my wife and I love visiting Europe!

From the day we met 20+ years ago my wife told me "I want a Jaguar convertible" (at that time it would have been an XK). Interesting first date discussion, no?
Many years later we were finally in the position to get a beautiful garage kept 2014 F-Type V8S. She drives it, I wash it. Well, sometimes she lets me drive too. Every pop and crackle it emits makes us giggle like kids.
The attached photo has some filters going on, the factory color is "Satellite Grey Metallic". Also, that is NOT us in the background of the photo.

Cheers!

Gorgeous Jag!

I'm another American on the forum.

This place is a great resource with some excellent members, I'm not going to let a pesky international boundary keep me out of here :)

Quite a few of us Brits frequent the US forum, too - it's only right that we welcome reciprocation. ;)

Agreed on the front plate.

Texas requires a front plate, but I can, literally, go years, without being stopped or cited for it.
