Cool Finally got my first car - a jag!!!

Hey everyone, My name is Rob and I'm new to jaguarforums.com. I'm a teenager from Philly who recently acquired my first car a few months back, a 1999 Jaguar XJ8. Its not exactly perfect, but my jag is something that I would like to work on by myself and make it stand out even more (even though jags always stand out anyway!) I would like to learn more about my car and hopefully these forums will help me do so. I've already taught myself a good bit about jags, and have previously only read these forums as a guest. Now I figured that I'll dive on into the forums myself and associate myself more with other jaguar owners and their experiences with their own jags!

Welcome to the forum Rob,

Congratulations on your first car and having the good taste to make it a Jaguar. Looks good from the pic.

As you've already been reading, this probably means you already know your way around the forum but if not, follow this link XJ ( X308 ) XJ8 / XJR - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to the X308 section for help, advice and information. The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for info on regular issues.

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

You can also visit the US North East Region section by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/n...t-nj-ny-pa-35/ to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forum.

Graham

Smile Wow, what a first car! Congratulations Rob!

Well the Jaguar is not a normal car and it never will be in my view!
Welcome to the forum and I hope you achieve good mileage and many interesting travels, in style, with Panache and Panacea!
Good going and keep us posted!
Ps, the cat looks FAB!
