Hi all, just recently retired so I decided to get another Jag. Living in Cleveland in the North East of the UK where it's nearly always cold & wet, I struggled to find a good example for sale.
Originally I had an X300 3.2 for a couple of years and enjoyed so much I upgraded to a 2.7 v6 x350. That car was so bad (we named it Christine & the engine finally seized at only 34k) I turned to Mercedes for the last 10 years.
So finally I have returned back to Jaguar with a 1999 3.2 XJ8 Japanese import with 13k on the clock. So far the issues have just been little niggles until my radio died.
The Joy's eh!!

Welcome to the Forums.

Its not easy replacing an X300, they were that good.

Good luck with the V8.

Welcome to the forums Mark,

Good to have you with us.

I can see you've already found your way to the X308 forum so there's no need for a link to it from me. The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information on regular issues.

Please 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 UK & Eire Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/uk-eire-68/ to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham

Hello, Mark,
Congratulations on your latest Jaguar!
I hope you can get that radio working to your satisfaction. I personally don't like any Sound System in any of my cars, it's a distraction from other drivers trying to hit me.

Welcome to the forums from ElinorB.
