Default Hello, everyone!

Hey, everybody. Brand new here and to owning a Jaguar. I just purchased a 1997 Vanden Plas about a week ago and so far am really enjoying it. I have always been into cars and motorcycles and have had many in my time. I was raised around hot rods and Harleys and therefore most of my own vehicles have been the like. I have two young boys now and wanted something with four doors, so I figured why not get something really nice while I am at it.
My car has 130k miles and seems to have been pretty well taken care of. Most everything works except the sunroof. It does nothing at all when I push the button. I believe I checked the correct fuse and it seems to be ok. Also, the car does not have the owners manual so learning how to work alot of the features is somewhat of a challenge. For example I cannot figure out how to adjust my steering wheel at all!
I know this is the new members area and that there are areas for technical stuff, but any help you could lend would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

Welcome to the forum.

The drivers handbook is available for download from the X300 FAQ.

All the best.
