Default Intro

Hi,

I finally got around to registering after using the amazing info on this forum for several repairs.

Jag ownership started with my wife finding a red 2001 XK8 convertible on Craigslist, and being unable to resist after seeing the price dropping week over week.

After sorting out a few of the inevitable 'issues', I realised over the next few months that it was completely unfair for me not to have one too. I was then lucky enough to stumble upon a beautiful 2002 XKR Coupe which was being sold by a forum member, and feel very fortunate to have been able to take it on.

Looking forward to many years of 'spirited driving' and 'tinkering'......

Welcome to the forum Chirpy,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

It sounds like you've already found your way to the XK8/XKR forum so there's no need for a link to it from me.
The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information on regular issues.

You can also visit the US Central Region forum by following this link US Central - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum
to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham

Welcome.

I am with Elinor.

YOU get the "R", she gets the "standard", good luck with that one, till she works it out.

BUT, hers is RED, and they are always faster.
