Default Hello Everyone

I just purchased a 1999 XK8 with 44,500 miles on it. I love it so far but because I live in Canada and we get lots of snow, I'll be soon putting it to bed for a long winter's nap. I have a few things that I want to do to it so It will give me a chance to do them. Thanks for your time. Peter

Welcome. I'm certain you'll like the car very much. Hopefully, you'll be able to get it for a few drives before the winter sets in.

Hi zmann 96,
A warm welcome to you before the winter snows come in. I see you are in my favourite country. We have some relatives in Nova Scotia and enjoyed our visits there.
Have a good and safe trip to New Hampshire etc.
Snow is forecast for the North of Scotland this week, but it seems a bit early for us to be having snow in October. Last year we had a number of falls during the winter period, which came as a surprise to many, as we have not had very much snowfall in recent years.
All the best and enjoy your new purchase and of course the Forum.
Regards,
Inver.
