Talking New Guy here....2000 XKR

Hello to all,

2000 XKR Convertible - 125k - Anthracite Pearl / Black Top
(post pictures soon)

Location: Oro Valley (Tucson),AZ

I just recently purchased my XKR and I absolutely love the car....it has some wear and tear but overall in fantastic shape.

I've only had it for about 2 months now and of course (my luck) I have a radiator leak....so I found this forum looking for info on radiators.

Love the helpful links and posts here so I decided to join.

I had no idea the radiators for XKR's were so expensive...!!!!

I have owned other Jag's in the past ( 1987 XJ6 Vanden Plas / 1995 XJ8 ) and I remember some things being a bit more...but DANG...!!!

I'm sure you all know this already...

So....Hello....love the forum...and I look forward to sharing, learning, and making new friends.

Welcome to the forum XKR2000,

Good to have you here with use at Jaguar Forums.

Cooling hoses, thermostat and water pump are regular issues but you've been unlucky to have the radiator fail.

It sounds like you might already know your way around here but if not, 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 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.

You can also visit the US Southwest Region section by following this link Southwest US - AZ TX NM OK - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forum.

Graham
