New to Jag! Now hav 1999 xk8
82,000 it's had good care from 3 PO's and now it's my turn. Just got an evaluation from Jag dealer for the needed replacements and now trying to find local assistance rather than a dealer who marks up all parts double. Try $300 for a radiator flush, just for instance. Or how about $600 for a spark plug change. I learned at once to just stay out of that place. This will not be a daily driver so that takes some of the pressure off. Got it for a good price which took into account some repairs. Looking forward to some nice days here in the northwest.
