Default First time '99 XK8 owner in Indiana

I've just inherited my father's pride and joy; his 1999 Jag XK8 convertible. Having only driven it a few times before he died, I have no clue where to start and am looking forward to learning everything I can to keep his "baby" on the road.

Welcome.

Lots of info in the XK8 Tech Section.

The best carer for any Jag is YOU, and the Info on here, the car will be just fine.

Good luck.

Welcome to the forum intltrade0823,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums. My son has a similarly distant acquaintance with my Jaguars.

Follow this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/xk8-xkr-x100-17/ to the XK8/XKR forum for help, advice and information.
The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information on regular issues.

Please 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 Lower Atlantic Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/us-midwest-39/
to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham

Default Thanks and wish me luck!

Thank you for the warm welcome. I’ve got quite a bit of homework to do and greatly appreciate the links and tips.

My Dad passed away unexpectedly, with very little known about any concerns or issues.

Wish me luck!

Darcy
’99 XK 8 owner
