I haven't taken pics of my Jag in forever. Figured I'd have some fun today. Prettiest Ford on the block.

Car looks great and you've definitely got some photo skills!

Love the interior on your Jag. Excellent use of wood and color.

Takes me back, my family had a 84 Vanden Plas back in the day.. good times!

Enjoy it!

Nice pics!

I can't read the EXIF on the pics on this PC so can I ask what lens and camera you are using? Also what is your oppinion on the bokeh in this pic?

One of the overall most pleasant cars to sit in and look at, get out and walk around. One of the most annoying to drive. Road noise is as loud as a 68 camaro, and gets the gas mileage of an F-250. Why do I like it? They say the same thing about every exotic out there. I keep it based on the same principle..... it's the nicest X-type I've ever seen (I hate most of them this one grabbed my attention) so I like driving it since the interior is really nice, and it's a nice car to look at in the driveway. Isn't like I don't have 4 other choices to drive so small complaints are tolerable (plus the lady drives it more than I do). It's worth having and has been very reliable - against the JD Powers reports. One issue in a year and a half.... and it was petty.

At under 20 MPG (it's AWD) I wouldn't be extremely enthusiastic if it were my only car, but as a 5th car it's perfect and too nice overall not to have in the collection. This one is the 3.0 with all options and most of them are 2.5 with limited options.
