Default My 1st Jag...2000 XK8 Convertible

Hello everyone, I'm new to this forum and the proud owner of a 2000 XK8 convertible as of yesterday. My first Jag!

I'm a snowbird...winters are spent in FL and summers are at the NJ shore, I've got the best of both worlds. I was getting tired of putting our second car on an auto carrier to go back and forth. So based on a friends advice I began my Jag search. Luckily, I came across this beauty on Craig's List; plus the seller will also do my repairs. He's a Jag mechanic,how lucky can you get?

To my surprise when taking the car to get a title change I discovered that this is a UK grey market car. This 2000 XK8 is in great shape. I'm only in need of new floor mats. Any suggestions as to where they can be purchased?

Looking forward to the ride and learning more through this site.

Hoping I set up my page correctly.........

Congratulations on your 'new' Jaguar!
Some of our several sponsors can probably provide you with floor mats.

Welcome to the forum Csajaguar,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

A "
UK grey market car" - is it RHD?

I can see you've already found your way to the XX8/XKR tech forum so there's no need for a link to it from me. I've responded to your thread there with some further information on floor mats. The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for info on regular issues.

You can also visit the USA Lower Atlantic Region forum by following this link USA Lower Atlantic - NC SC FL GA - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum
to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham

Thanks for the welcome. Graham, no it is not an RHD. The new mat search will begin.
