Howdy!

I am the new owner of a 2000 Jaguar XJ8 Sedan.
It's been a dream of mine since I was a little kid to have a Jag with a ridiculously long front end with a leaper hood ornament...I think I nailed it

With age came responsibility and interest in the history, mystique and mechanical wonder that is a Jaguar.

I'm happy to have found this forum and look forward to combing the endless pages of tips, tricks and advice.
Already done:
Transmission service/replaced trans pan gasket
To Do:
Oil service/replace oil pan gasket
Cig Lighter troubleshoot
Electrochromic Rearview Mirror replace
Wax/Polish dull paint on hood
Lube Antenna

Thanks Jeff. Your 300C looks great! I was actually looking for either an early 2000s 300M or a Jag when I found the xj8. Being 6'5" with a bad back and a tight, cash only budget-I'm ecstatic with my purchase so far...already found all sorts of great tinkering projects on here to try.
