Just bought my first Jag

'95 Vanden Plas. I've only had it a few days and already having some fun. Needs a few minor fixes. Looking forward to some tips from all of you.

They are a lovely car, better than the X308 (XJ8) that came after it. This was the first Jaguar that could acheive pan-galactic mileages without trouble. I first saw one (a factory tester), in Leamington Spa in 1993 before it was announced.
