I always knew this day would come...I just didn't think it would be quite so soon. I had planned on driving the 'Tour through the end of summer, and replacing it when it started to get cold. I am graduating from college at the end of this month, and secured a full-time position that I am already working. As a 'reward' to myself, I decided to replace the Contour (which is running perfect after 107,000 some odd miles) with this:

A 2002 Jag X-Type!

Found it last Saturday while looking at a few Ford dealerships in the area, bought it from the same guy I bought the Contour from actually.

For an X-Type, it's middle of the road - dual power seats, automatic climatic control, autochromatic mirror, dual LED displays for climate and sound control, premium 10 speaker Alpine system w/ sub. Basically the only thing it doesn't have that I wish it did was the dual heated seats. Anyway, let me know what ya think...more pics below...I know quality isn't that good, will try to get some better ones later.
