Default Long time jaguar tech, new jaguar owner

Hello Everyone,

I just joined this forum today. I have been a Master Jaguar Technician for almost ten years now. I just purchased my first jaguar. I am the new owner of a 2005 XKR coupe. I'm looking forward to joining a community of jaguar owners, and with my experience helping out a community of jaguar owners.

Welcome TOPDAWG82. There's no doubt you'll be able to offer some valuable information to the novices (me for one) on this site, as do several other excellent techs that I've had the pleasure of reading replies and gaining knowledge from.
Enjoy your ride, and thanks in advance for your contributions and patience with us!
Ralph

Our administrator, who currently controls titles and those banners (i'm hoping to get title access one of these days ) is on holiday or whatever they call it. We'll brand you officially when he returns. You sure you want such an 'honor' bestowed upon you? Brutal, motorcarman, jagtechohio, and our other goldplated jagtechs sometimes wish they could be a little more anonymous at times when the forums are thirsting for fixes from the pros. Be careful what you wish for, lol.

Topdawg,

Welcome!

You won't know me by this handle, but I've acquired a lot of parts from you over the last several years. You're a valuable resource and glad you're aboard!
