Default Hello! 2000 XKR Red Convertible

I was "made an offer I couldn't refuse" - and now I LOVE this car!!

I'm in the Dallas / Fort Worth area and was offered NFL Player Drew Pearson's XKR - it was a "Steal of a Deal" that I couldn't pass up! I'm a General Contractor and planned to just drive it a little & then flip it, but I have a 13 year old son and as a single Dad.. my boy thought this car was waaaaaay kewl!! What's a feller ta do?

I have a few questions, but not sure how to get started here? I have scoured the threads already looking for answers, but still need help. What should I do - ask here or in the general X100 forum??

Welcome to the Forums.

Listen to your Son, he knows.

Tech type questions are in the X100 section, and I always suggest one subject per thread, as a member might know the answer to one item and not the others, and then the thread get confusing sometimes.

Good luck.

Welcome again Kevin,

You have already posted an Intro in January so the place look for answers or to post questions about your model is the relevant model forum. Follow this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/xk8-xkr-x100-17/ to the XK8/XKR forum for help, advice and information. The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information on regular issues.

Please add vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. Go to the User CP button on the left of the top menu bar, then Settings & Options under Your Control Panel. Select Edit Signature and enter the details.


Graham

Ok I think I have succeeded in adding a picture and a little more info about my car. If I'm missing something, let me know & I'll work on it.

Thanks again!
