Default Introduction

Hi members. Let me introduce myself. I'm Peter-AUS from Sydney Australia. I caught the "Jaguar bug" in my early to mid teens when my father owned a 1964 Mark 10 followed by a 1969 Daimler Sovereign 420. All that leather and wood made a big impact on me when most Aussie cars came with painted metal and vinyl. I was recently offered a 1987 XJ40 XJ6 from a deceased estate that sat in their garage for 6 years and I couldn't refuse it. It needs a fair bit of TLC to get back to good condition but, I'm quite determined to do that and I hope you guys might be able to help me along the way, sharing
your knowledge/insight. I look forward to hearing from you.

Welcome to the forum Peter_AUS,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

It looks like you've followed your post I moved to the XJ40 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.

Please remember to add vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. Go to the User CP button on the left of the top menu bar, then Settings & Options under Your Control Panel. Select Edit Signature and enter the details.

You can also visit the Australia - New South Wales Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/a...-wales-act-93/
to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
