My2005JaguarXK8 - New Nember
HI,
I am Fred and a new owner of a 2005 Jaguar XK8 convertible racing green metalic. Prior sport cars were 3 Porsches, 1 Corvette, 1 Alfa Spyder, 1 Sunbeam Alpine, and a TR 3. So far have only encountered two small issues along with a solution posted on this forum. The XK8 will reside in the State of Delaware but perhaps go with us to Florida from time to time. So far my additions have been (1) replaced twin horn unit, (2) all 4 center wheel caps, (3) acquired a "ragtop clean/preservation kit, (4) a custom fit car cover, and (5) a sun shade. I also removed the front license plate holder as Delaware and Florida do not require front license plates.
Both I and my wife enjoy the XK8, it is a great highway cruiser.

I've moved your first post from the end of another Intro to a new one of your own so that everyone sees it
Follow this link XK8 / XKR - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to the XK8/XKR section for help, advice and information. The 'HOW TO' thread at the top there is a good place to start for info on regular issues.
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.
