Default Just agreed to buy my first Jag - XJR

Hi everyone,

I've been active over on the GrassRoots MotorSports forum for quite a while, and a fellow member there posted a link to your site here. It was a for sale ad. I browsed around, and found an XJR from member "Vector" that I'm flying to Florida to pick up May 11th.

I'm excited about the new car and to become active on this site too.

Thanks,
Indy-Guy

Welcome to the forums Indy_Guy,

Good to have you with us. You must have done some serious negotiation to keep within the Grassroots budget!

Follow this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/xj-xj8-xjr-x308-27/ to the X308 forum for help, advice and information. The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information on regular issues.

Please 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.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham

Testing to see if my signature is active and correct.

Yes, negotiations were had, but really the car has a salvage title, and LOTS of cosmetic damage to exterior (every panel is dented or scratched) and will need body work and paint, so the Retail Value is severely reduced. However the performance should be really good

Any updates on your XJR rescue adventure? Did you turn it into a racer or return it to its former glory?
