Welcome to the forum John,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

Follow this link XJ XJ8 / XJR ( X308 ) - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to the X308 forum for help, advice and information.
The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information 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.

You can also visit the US Lower Atlantic Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/usa-lower-atlantic-nc-sc-fl-ga-66/
to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham

Congratulations on your new Jaguar!
Really, a Jag is like any other British car; it merely speaks with a British accent, which is sometimes a bit hard for Mercans to understand. Other than that, all cars are basically the same until you get into the rolling computers of the current years.

thank you all for the warm welcome I am looking forward to making a few new friends and sharing my enthusiasm for such a great car. I have been a car guy in the south east since I can remember. I already have a good firm handle on most things automotive. but help from peers is always a plus cant wait to dig in and get this cat up to the standard of quality it deserves. thanks again to all of you

John,

I can see your Signature in our Moderator Control Panel :

jcreaden
99 xj8
USA


Signature changes appear with the NEXT post, not immediately so if you've set this up since making post #8 it should be OK now.

Graham
