Smile Moved from XK8 to XKR!

Hello all,

Returning member here.

Last Jaguar was a really nice 1999 XK8 that I really loved (even after being a victim of the chain tensioners and required an $11K motor).

I've been without for about 4 years and finally got the XKR I was looking for.

The new addition is a 2006 XKR Victory Edition in Quartz Metallic with 20" Sepang wheels and the dove interior.

Love it and glad to be back!

Welcome back to the forum magoo2u,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

My last XK8 was a Final Series - the equivalent spec to the Victory. You have definitely gone for the best which comes with all the former options as standard.

You probably know your way around the sections but if not, follow this link XK8 / XKR - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to the XK8/XKR forum for help, advice and information.
The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for info on regular issues.

Please remember to 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.

You can also visit the US Central Region forum by following this link Central US - MT WY CO ND SD NE KS - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum
to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
