Default Hello from Lower Alabama (LA)

Hi
My name is Neil. I live on the Gulf Coast of Alabama on the beautiful Perdido Bay between Pensacola, FL and Orange Beach , AL. I recently purchased a 2003 Jaguar XKR which seems to be in great shape aother than a couple of issues - most anoying one being the adaptive cruise control not working. So I am certainly looking for help and info on that!
I am an amateur mechanic - worked mainly on older engines and cars in the past. I also have a 1977 MGB wich has things that I understand like distributors and carburretors!
I am a retired engineer - so anxious to learn more about Jags and how to fix them. When I am not tinckering, I am usually out sailing - I love long-distance sailing and have over 30,000 miles of ocean passages completed.
