I made this account to help fix my car. She's a 2005 Jaguar Vanden Plas and I bought the car from a shady dealer that didn't tell me about the issues with the car or British car moments that I call them. I do a lot of my own maintenance because I don't have a lot of money to pay mechanics so it's cheaper for me to fix the issues myself but I might need help from this forum.
