Noobie saying Hi.

Very nice! I had an S-Type 4.2 V8 SE for over ten years from almost new (was a demonstrator with 14 miles done). Did close on 130,000 miles. I have all of its history so ask of you wish to know anything based on my experience with the car.
It was preceded by an S-Type 4.0 V8 SE which I had for 3 1/2 years and about 85,000 miles. The later model is a big step up in my view.
Changed the S-Type in June 2014 for an XF 5.0 Portfolio. Very nice too!

Thanks for the welcome guys, MIKE E now there's a mate from the past how are you doing you young bugger!
Great to see you posting, I did rate your Cerb one of the finest and well cared for cars around at the time.
Bet Fernies were sad you sold it!

Hi Al
Fernies weren't too upset, I sold it to them! Couldn't be arsed with test pilots plus I got the sum I wanted. Having seen the state of the market for used Cerberas I should have kept it in hindsight, didn't realise how good mine was, but hey ho. Still got a V8 in the Mercedes and it is quicker, just too damn quiet. Be good to have a get together for a chat, it's been a while! Regards to Miggy BTW.

Hi big fella, apologies for not catching up. Loads going on, Tony breaking arm, stuff with Lauren etc. where's the year gone?
Will call over weekend and hope you doing ok.
Back to cars, and congrats on the Jag. They really are fantastic cars, underrated in many quarters. Still adoring our F Type R. Amazing car and here when you want to give it a test.
Speak soon, take care and love and hugs to Miggy.

Give us a ring Sunday evening or we'll ring you think this weekend will be a bit busy.
Pics, PICS you say, I don't pick it up until the morning gimme a chance Girl.
I'll do a few snaps over the weekend and post some up if I can remember how.
I'm doing OK now got the all clear for the next year, so great.
Yep time flys, a full five months into this year already, jeeze where does the time go?
Can't wait for a drive in the FTR sounds awesome.
Love to you both.
Great car and welcome to the fold! I'm a relative newcomer to the marque, started off with this on a whim;
Not a good one but I got the Cat bug so moved on to a 4.2S a bit older than yours....wow, what a machine. Effortless and such a Q car, owned it for 3 years and still rates as one of my favourite cars.
Current steed, never ever try one of these unless you've got your wallet ready, the whine from the supercharger makes all logic go out of the window and it will arrive on your drive!
Have fun!
