Default New to the Jag clan !

Found a cherry of a 2001 XJ8L w/ 120K on the clock & looking to keep her pristine for years to come.

Just touched down today first thing I'm going to do is change all the fluids, then tackle the timing chain.

Also looking to upgrade the head unit & speakers(as the front left appears to be blown with a irritating rattle lol) so any recommendations would be great as I don't want to ruin the the interior's lines. Car was a one owner but is missing the manual & documentation of service but the Car Fax shows it was done routinely via the dealer up until 80k. Will most definitely be an active/contributing member of this community.

PEACE

Welcome to the forum King Charles,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

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

Please 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.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham

I upped pics from the sale listing I will do more as I make her mine lol. Anyone know any stereo upgrades (H.U. preferably with NAV,front & rear speakers) that don't require any modification to install like I said I'd like to keep the interior clean lined.

PS
I attempted to search but get the no results found message. Maybe on my end as I'm having phone/tablet issues lol.
