I joined yesterday because I need help with my dream car-a Jaguar now off my bucket list-purchased as a birthday present by my daughter. I am trying to find an owner's manual and how I can get another key made.

But you haven't told us what you bought for her!
Congratulations anyway, and welcome to the forums from ElinorB.

Welcome. She must like you then.... I'd look for manuals on eBay, unless you want a fresh printing. And for keys- I think that depends on the style of key

Thank you for welcoming me to the Group. It was a total surprise.
my Jaguar is a 1998 Vanden Plas, and of course, it is not a regular key. Thanks for info on where to look for mamuals, I will try.

We drove from British Columbia to my home in Queenstown New Brunswick Canada and my gift was her airfare back to her home. We had a great time crossing Canada.

Welcome to the forum shekellorie,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

I can see you've already found your way to the X300 forum so there's no need for a link to it from me.
The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information on regular issues.

If you can make do with an electronic version of the Driver's Handbook, it's available for download from the forum.

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 Canada Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/canada-73/
to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham

Thank you for welcoming to this Forum. I sure hope I learn something about my 1998 Vanden Plas. I know it will take time, but I am anxious to learn.
