Have any of you owned an Alfa or a Jaguar?
No but I did own a Range Rover. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> While it never let me down it was the most anxiety creating thing I've ever owned. Went a lot better with a much modded Ozy 4.5l P76 but the transmission was a disaster.
I agree the TF was a great car but my preference is for the earlier TC. Much more tradition and possibly the most raced car of all time.
