Default Baywin Introduction XKR 03 owner

Looking for something more fun to drive, I found a 03 XKR on a dusty dealer lot in Saltlake city. Haggled it down to a good deal and drove off with it. A bit of a leap of faith but at that price I had nothing to loose.
Have since learned a lot about zf 6hp26 transmissions... and don't regret for a second.. ish. I replaced the valve body (revmax) and now having fun again.

I'm a Dane, engineer gone marketing... moved to the US (Boise) 14 years ago I have always worked on cars as a hobby, new to Jaguar. I will share my Saab expertise on a different forum. :-)

Honored and humbled to be in such fine company.
