    She's never happy returning the luxury to pick up my 'truck'. Must admit I have also enjoyed the other vehicles, but they just dont leave you with that feeling you have when you are in your Defender.

    Gees that SVX has been back to the Stealers a few times

    That has got to be better than the hairdresser's car you had last time Dan.

    Dan I've had a word with Jag Aus for you, asking them why you didn't get the Sovereign version like mine,but they don't send that model to Aus so you'll just have to rough it

    The X-Type is in its last year of production.
    You have confirmed what I long suspected, I always thought the X-type AND the S-type looked very much like an AU Falcon from the rear!!

    Well guys - took a drive to Boonah for lunch - the Jag is nice to drive, but I don't know if it's any better than anything else more "generic". I did enjoy driving it, but I'm not sure if that was just because I knew I was driving a Jag or because of the car itself really.

    I do like it - but don't think I'd buy it. Kat really likes it though, so who knows?
