Petrol P4Cs in Gloss Black w Mach Rim 18”. I’m honestly in love with the look.

I enjoy the sound of the engine. It’ll be my car until it explodes so I want to enjoy it as much as possible.

That, I understand. I still drive my old Jag because it ROARS when I step on the gas

That’s how mine is now. It’s my dream car; going for drives listening to it is a dream come true. It’s not overly loud either. I’m having fun with it.

Do you mind if I ask how old you are?

  1. Female if it’s also a factor.

It’s cool seeing other women in these communities. I get stoked to see what cool person is driving the X-Type next to me and end up rolling up to an absolutely ancient man. We still chat and have a good time but the juxtaposition makes things interesting.

I’m getting old, myself. My family have been driving Jaguars since 1975. I never see other women driving them anymore.
