Default G'day from Melbourne, Australia

G'day all.
I have inherited a sickening love for cars from my father and one of my uncles. As a result, have recently bought an XJS from my uncle's estate. He had it for 16-18 years, and I always looked longingly at so when the chance came up to buy it, I jumped. He used to be madly into cars, thought it would have been looked after... but am finding out more and more how much it was neglected. Am slowly working through it.
Have been hunting around the net to learn more about the old girl, and this seems like a great place to start.
See you round the forum!

Welcome to the forum,

Good to have you with us.
It will be worth all the hard work in the end.

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

Welcome! Jaguars are like a beautiful women. Nice to look at, but a pain when it comes to maintenance
