Smile G'day from Oz

I am a very happy Jag s-type 2005 owner. Picked up the car last Friday with only 36,000 Km on the clock and have not stopped grinning since. Coming from a 13 year old Toyota Corolla I am really appreciating all the little luxurys the car offers such as:

- adjusting the steering wheel when I get in and out of the car
- inbuilt sat-nav
- leather seats and steering wheel
- auto lights even when I go in and out of parking stations
- smooth suspension

Welcome to the forum Glyn, nice to have another Sydney-sider with us.

That's really, really low mileage for a 10 year old car, it must be like a time capsule...

Thanks for the welcomes all. Yes it is a time capsule. Very lucky to have it with such low milage. Will be taking it for a complete service within the week to rectify any issues including dust boot replacement.

I am pretty sure the previous owner moth balled it for a while. I will definitely driving it for a while on the weekends.

The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for info on regular issues.
