Helo All!. I am the proud next owner of a gently used 2001 XKR Convertible in Tampabay, Fl, U.S.A.

It was bought as a gift for my wife who is graduating with her Masters in Higher Education in 20 days, and is then to embark on acquiring her eJD!

Like most, it seems to have lots of little problems but I am fairly competent to tinker and know when I am in over my head. So far (less than 1 week) I have replaced one fog lamp bulb (that one was scary complex ), i found the 'latest' nav dvd and was able to use that to update the nav, and I just pulled the cd changer as was found to be not connected and it works when the car is running but once the jag is shut off, the cd changer constantly ejects It is now out of the car until i figure out what to do with it. I guess the wife will have to wait to crank out Bon Jovi on the Alpine system. THe last isue i have (so far?) is that telescoping motor does not telescope and I will need a few missing 'standard' things, like a few more keys, wind deflector, tonnau cover et al.

Wish me luck!
