Default Hello! New Member Intro

Hello everyone. I’m an ex-pat Brit, located in California, and I’ve loved Jags ever since my aunt took me for a ride in her XJS in the early’’80s, but it’s taken me years to summon up the courage and the money to own one (her car went up in flames due to an electrical fault ). It was only a matter of time, though - I had to have one!

I started with a manual 2003 S-type a friend was selling, and then sold that and bought my current car, a 2000 XKR coupe - platinum with oatmeal interior - which I’ve had since 2015. I still secretly lust after a V-12 XJS, but I’ve made my peace with the realization that it probably won’t ever happen.

Anyway, I’ve been a forum lurker for a while, and decided it was time to say hi, and to start contributing where I can.

Welcome to the forums artntek,

Good to have you with us.

It sounds like you've already found the relevant model forum but if not, 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. You can also use the US Western Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/us-western-38/ to find other members in your region.

Please read the guidance for new members ( https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/n...ned-up-241802/ ) which answers many of the most frequent questions about getting started.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
