Howdy Jaguar Forumites, my name is Liam and I have a 2002 XK8 Coupe in black with a black interior. I've been driving it for the better part of the last three years. Before the Jag I had been staunchly Mercedes, and have owned a '96 S500, '95 S500 Coupe, and '90 500SL.

I'm a photographer, industrial designer, and marketing specialist. I've got several things to fix up on this car but it makes for a great city daily and weekend excursion vehicle (when there's no snow).

I'm somewhat proficient in CAD and have my own 3D printer to make things / prototype , so I aim to use these for components where appropriate or necessary!

Lots of great information hidden in these boards, thanks for having me here!

Greetings Liam and welcome to JF.

The XK8 is a fine Jaguar GT and we wish you much joy in your ownership. Of course maintenance is an ongoing challenge but most of the heavy lifting has been done and reported here. Suggest you wade into the Stickies at the head of the X100 sub-forum and jump over to Gus' excellent site at JagRepair.com for a host of resources.

Cheers and best wishes.
