Welcome to the forum,

The car looks good, are you thinking about another Jag when you sell it?

Thanks Norri

Definitely, am set on a XK8

Will probably get a 96-98

Have been doing some research and am interested to hear first hand experiences regarding cost/effectiveness of the Paragon 08 kit, the Mina Gallery aprons or the possibility of putting a 05 bumper on it..

Also have a few questions about problems with my X type I would like to fix before sale as in New Zealand I am finding it very expensive to get any reliable advice..

So hopefully I am in the right place!

Welcome to the forum!

Oh one other thing you need to put your car details in your signature. I am speaking of the Year, Make & Model. Without it you may not get the input you are looking for.

Please take a moment and read the information provided to you explaining the rules. Be patient and enjoy the site.
