Hi everyone!
Well, I did it...I bought what I always wanted. I am confused and thrilled all at once. I found my XJ8 with 67,000 miles on it. Outside looks like a new car, inside is pretty good too!
Now I just have to figure the various things that will need to be done to keep this car going as well as I hope. I had been reading this forum for some time as a guest prior to my purchase- I learned so many things I had never thought of. SO much more to learn.. I am sure you all will be a great help.

BTW..this is the first time in my life I have ever bought an attractive car. I raised 8 kids so you can well imagine the ugly iron I have been driving all my life.
I look out my kitchen window and I see this amazingly good looking car. Is it really mine??? yessssssssssssssss
