Hi Guys, i don´t have the intention to violate the forum rules , so according to this here´s my intro:


My name is Fritz, i´m in my late fifties, and opposite to most of my friends still in the business. I´am located in Germany (yes, the current Soccer World Champion), near Duesseldorf.


Got myself a XK8 Conv., 2004, black over black, about 85 tkm on it. Last owner was my brother, who passed away unfortunately at the end of last year.


My first intention was to sell the XK, but she is so beautiful and after driving her a few days I decided not to let her go. And, to say it’s a ***** waggon would not be the appropriate description, but as you know all the girls are love that car.


Actually i´m a Porsche guy, currently I own two 911, one is a convertible the other a turbo. I try to do maintenance and repair mostly by myself, therefore I have a small shop with lifter equipted. Lets see what the jag is made of.
I like your country very well, recently I put 4000 miles on a mustang conv., going places in Cal, Utah and AZ, it was a memorable journey.

Nice to be in, Fritz

Hello, Fritz,
We read so very often in here, "My family member who died had this car and I thought of selling it until I drove it." Jaguars do that to people.

I'm sorry for your loss of your brother.
