Default greetings

Hello all, and I am thankful to be a new member. I have just purchased a 2008 XKR Coupe. It's been a while since my last Jaguar ownership ( 6 years ago with a 1988 Signal Red XJS Convertible). I pick it up on Saturday and have no more knowledge or experience with this model, so here's hoping. Regards, Mick

One of the commonest questions from new owners/members is how to replace missing keys. Make sure it comes with 2 Smartkeys. These are very expensive to replace and have to be programmed to the vehicle by a Jaguar Dealer or an independent with equivalent diagnostics.
