Default Hello

Hi guys,

Bought my first Jaguar in April, a 2000 XK8 in silver. Beautiful looking car and lovely to drive. Currently single and in a good teaching job so now was the time to get one, what with a decent wage and no family commitments.

Don't regret getting a Jag at all, but have had numerous problems with it so I'm joining you guys for some advice- need to decide whether to go through and solve all the problems or cut my losses and get rid of it

Shane

Hello, Shane,

Life is a lot like owning a Jaguar isn't it. You can try to work your way through the problems one at a time and receive great satisfaction or you can cut your losses and get rid of it.

Welcome from ElinorB.

Thanks for the welcomes.

I'm going through some low cost solutions to start with but I expect if it's looking as though it'll be a bigger, more costly job, I may need to think about cutting my losses. Would be a great shame!
