Default New Guy here

Hello everyone, I finally decided to actually join you instead of just reading the forums as an outsider. I have a 2000 XJ8 VDP w/ the 4.0L It's silver with the black interior. I love this car! Three years ago I went around to several auto dealerships looking for a late model, dependable, economical, "family" vehicle to purchase. When I saw this baby, lonely on the lot, my search criteria went out the window. I bought her on the spot and drove her home to meet the Mrs. Has anyone else's spouse just stared at them for hours? Anyway, my wife got used to the idea and does enjoy driving the car when she can. I haven't dug too deeply yet, but it seems to me that this was a daily driver from Chicago, IL. I have just rolled over into the 100k mileage, but she runs just fine most of the time. I will be posting a few questions here that are just outside my scope of knowledge. This looks like a great Forum to belong to. Thanks.

Hello and welcome to jaguarforums.com. I know that you are anxious to get started and we are anxious to meet you and talk about your car. We have a baseline / criteria that must be met before full access can be granted. Please enjoy the forum and be patient once the baseline has been satisfied full access will be granted. Please continue to post and accept my welcome to the forum.

Oh one other thing you need to put your car details in your signature. I am speaking of the Year, Make & Model. Without it you may not get the input you are looking for.

Please take a moment and read the information provided to you explaining the rules. Be patient and enjoy the site.
