Smile Lewes, De. 2000 Jaguar XK8 conv (65K)

Bought used 4yrs ago. Real head turner and fun to drive. So far replaced fuel pump, front brakes, and fluid for conv top. Needs front springs this time. I predicted about $1K per yr for maint and have been dead on. Drove to Fl and back past winter with no problems

Hello, Charles,
$1000/year seems high when you put it like that, but if I added up everything I've put into my car for maintenance and repairs it might pass it up, but then mine is a bit older than yours and I haven't had it as long, but still, I don't think I want to know.

Welcome to the forums from ElinorB.
