Default Greetings from Canada - new X308 owner

Just bought this 99 XJR on Saturday and I'm in love with it. 132000kms on it. Interior is in great shape, exterior has a bunch of dings and scratches but no rust. She is so much fun to drive. First time Jag owner here, but have always wanted one.
Thinking I'll upgrade to a CAI and maybe do a muffler delete to give it a nice rumble.

Welcome to the forums thelegend0210,

Has it been a five year search since you first posted about a potential purchase?

I can see you've already found your way to the X308 forum so there's no need for a link to it from me. The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information on regular issues. You can also use the Canada Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/canada-73/ to find other members in your region.

Please read the guidance for new members ( https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/n...ned-up-241802/ ) which answers many of the most frequent questions about getting started.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham

Thanks, and yeah I was looking back in 2018 but ended up going with a 2018 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk instead, which I am now selling.

Hello,
Congratulations on your First Jaguar!
130 odd K miles is just now well broken in and loosened up for a modern engine. With proper care and feeding you'll get Years out of it yet.
