Default Gazzer's New Ride

After 2 and a bit years and 2 S2000's, I decided that I wanted to go to new pastures. So after much talk and no action up until now, I went for it and bought a 2002 Jaguar XKR.

Not just any ole XKR but a Limited Edition XK100. The beauty of this is that there are only 80 Coupes in the UK and they come fully, I mean fully loaded!

So here's my new gurl................................




Hope I like living with a Black car!




20 inch Montreals and Brembo Brakes.


Nice bit of wood and aluminium.


Recaro seats.


All I can say from my spirited first drive yesterday, is that it is bloody quick!

I'll write a wee report once I get some miles on her, but I am in lurve!!!!!!!.

I'm not a big fan of Jag's, but that does look nice.
Huge bang for your buck IIRC from reading the motoring press?

I always loved that shape - and that is a nice model that you have there. That view of the wheel/brakes puts the 'S' in its place!

Classy.
