New Members Story - Jim McBride

Hi Graham,

Thank you for your welcome. I am new to the Jaguar world, having purchased my 2006 XK in May of this year.

I previously owned an Alpha Spyder in the 1970s, but am not a past member of any car club.

I was originally looking for a 68 Mustang convertible, but couldn’t find what I wanted, and one day just happened to see this car advertised, and went to see it. As soon as the covers were pulled back, I knew this was the car for me and purchased it there and then. It has low milage and drives very well and I like to save it for special occasions.

I am a Director in our family Pastoral and Grazing business, AJ & PA McBride Ltd, an Adelaide based company. I have joined to be able to discuss specific issues concerning the car, and of course the social gatherings.

Regards Jim

Editor: If you get a chance to attend an E, F & GT meeting, there are a number of XK (X150) owners in the club that would be more than happy to talk about the ins and outs of XK’s.
