Default 2010 XK & 2011 XJL Standing out in Arkansas!

Hello everyone from Little Rock! Been a Jag owner for a little more than a year and have basically fallen in love with the brand. Still learning a lot and I thank all the seasoned members in hear for some really great info! Jags are extremely rare here so we get stares everywhere we drive and they always spark a conversation. Both have well over 100,000 miles and I have been very impressed with the build quality. Replaced a few suspension bushings and a new water pump but really nothing to shake a stick at... The previous owners did a bang up job with the preventative maintenance and we are blessed for that. Not sure what else to say other than "see ya'll"!

Heya Slammerdoc,

Awesome on having a pair of them

Quick question for ya, you mentioned suspension bushings... how much of a PITA was that job? I ask because I am starting to get that "clunk" over speedbumps etc... and did a bit of research, and the bushings could be the culprit in my '88

I have done some other DIY on the car and not scared to get right in there, but suspension can be a big job.

Cheers! ( And welcome from a fellow n00b )

Not Bad!! 100,000 miles and only a water pump and some suspension bushings?!
Not Bad at all!
My car hadn't made 80,000 before it needed a Full front suspension and rack rebuild!
