Default 'evening all

Another noob to this site located just outside of Boise, ID. Just agreed to purchase a 2002 XJ8 VDP on a gentleman's handshake. The keys are turned over to our possession Thursday since it's most convenient for the current owner. Pristine condition with service records since new. 77k on the clock. June '02 build date. I've been lurking here performing my research. This seems like a great site, lots of technical info. Looking forward to the forums.

Thanks,
Jason

Welcome Jason,

A very civilised way to purchase a quality motor vehicle. Enjoy the XJ8.

Welcome to the forum Jason,

Good to have you with us.
You don't often see gentleman and lurking used together. :-)
I kind of expected your name to be Dixon when I saw the title.



You should add your car details to your signature to help others to help you.

I was lurking only to research before deciding on an X308. As far as being a gentleman, well, I try. I will fill out my signature upon finalizing the purchase today and getting the car into my shop. I don't want to jinx myself.
