Default Hello from cold damp miserable UK!!!!

So why you may ask have I bought an XKR Convertible????????

Well, Because it'd be rude not to hear that glorious super charged V8.

I have had it for nearly a year now and whilst it's not been the most reliable car i've ever owned, it's certainly the best!

Looking forward to exploring on here and finding more hints and tips.

All the best for now

Welcome to the forum gg8.

Down here we are in the middle of the mother of all blizzards (normally we never see snow)!

When I had ragtops in the UK, Spits, Landies etc, pretty much 11 months of the year was topless. Decent sheepskin flying jacket and WW11 leather pilots helmet and good to go.

These days, pah, heated seats, air-con, defrosters, steering wheel heaters, people are missing out on so much elemental fun.

Enjoy the forums.
