Default Input Desired - XK

Good morning,
I have owned three XJ8's and one XF and loved them all. I am now looking to purchase a used XK8 convertible. I really like the lines of the first generation. Are they are model years that are more reliable than others from a pre-owned standpoint? Things to watch for?
Thank you so much for any advice.
Joe/Birmingham AL

Welcome to the forum Joe,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

Follow this link XK8 / XKR - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to the XK8/XKR forum for help, advice and information.
The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for info on regular issues. Look out for information on tensioners, transmission fluid changes and cooloing system issues - the three main weaknesses on the early XK8's

You can also visit the USA Southern MidWest Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/u...s-ky-tn-al-67/
to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
