Default !8 Month Owner of Silver 01 XKR Convertible

Have owned my 01 XKR convertible for 18 months and absolutely enjoy every minute on the road with her. Am slowly going through the front suspension bushings replacing them all myself to get rid of creeks and groans. All squeaks have vanished.. Am currently on the hunt for a full set of 20" BBS Detroit, Montreal or Sepang wheels domestically. I know that this is a difficult hunt but am just getting started and any forum members that can lend me a hand in finding a nice set in the USA, please drop me a line.

The car has 129k miles on her and was meticulously cared for and stored in climate controlled garage her whole life. I was fortunate to be handed hand written detailed logs that the first and second owners passed along to the other and now to me.

I have my own personal work shop with Bendpack two post lift and enjoy working on my 08 Range Rover, 01 XKR and 06 Porsche Cayenne S as my hobby.

Welcome to the forum firetaz390,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums. I hope the Sepangs you have looked at in CLASSIFIEDS are suitable. These are becoming VERY hard to find.

Follow this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/xk8-xkr-x100-17/ to the XK8/XKR forum for help, advice and information.
The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information on regular issues.

Please remember to add vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. Go to the User CP button on the left of the top menu bar, then Settings & Options under Your Control Panel. Select Edit Signature and enter the details.

You can also visit the US Southern Midwest Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/u...rn-midwest-67/
to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
