Welcome to the forum pomdownunder,

Congratulations on the XJ8. High mileage is nothing to worry about when it's backed by good service history.

Sounds like you've already found your way around here but, if not, follow this link XJ ( X308 ) XJ8 / XJR - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to the X308 section for help, advice and information. It's also the place to post your tech questions.

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

Enjoy the forum.

Graham
