Default A late introduction.

Joined up a while back but didn't get around to introducing myself.
Name is Matt, living in Catford, SE London, with a Pacific Blue petrol XJ6.
She is an early X350, number G03156 with currently 112,700 on the clock.
Had main dealer service history through to around 2016 and Jag Indy from then to 2018.
I bought her cheap in the summer of 2019 with 108k miles on the odometer, after she had been part exchanged and the MOT subsequently expired.
I took a very lucky gamble at £1450 and it passed it's MOT in November with nothing more than a mirror glass and new battery.
Dealer service stamps mean little without a breakdown, so I changed every filter and fluid since then, along with front wheel hubs, suspension compressor, upstream genuine Denso O2 sensors and transmission sleeve and bridge seals
Done everything myself, except re-gassing the aircon.
She has been going great, but has some issues now, which I'll go in to in the proper forum category.

Welcome to the forums Matt,

Good to have you with us. That's a lot of car for little money. Pleased to hear it worked out well.

You've probably already found the relevant model forum but if not, follow this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x...-x350-x358-28/ to the X350 forum for help, advice and information. The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information on regular issues. You can also use the UK & Eire Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/uk-eire-68/ to find other members in your region.

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

Welcome to the Forums.

Yep, stamps mean zero, and what you have done is the best a car can ask for.

Good luck.

Thanks Graham, had tried to do that earlier, but couldn't work out how.
