Hello, I have just joined the forum after visiting many times. I have been a Jaguar enthusiast for over 30 years. I have worked in the wholesale Jaguar parts business for many years in the past and also been involved in many restorations, from XK120/140/150 to E-types to Mark 2 & 5 to more modern XJ6 series 3, X300, XJS and now own a 2008 XK (in addition to a 1996 XJ6 which I've owned for many years).


My first Jag was a 1969 E-type which I was lucky enough to buy at the young age of 24 (after saving and scraping together the funds); since then I've owned many XJ6 series 3, XJS, and a more recently, a 1996 XJ6 (hands down, the most dependable car I have EVER owned, bar none).


I am quite familiar with the older cars and the X300 series, but my newer XK seems a bit daunting... many more electronics than I am used to. Excited about owning a sport coupe again, but admittedly a bit worried about reliability. From what I understand, the XK's can be reminiscent of the electrical issues that came with Lucas many years ago... just hoping I can provide the TLC needed to keep it running and enjoyable.


Glad to be here and look forward to participating!
