Default New member: 2007 XKR convertible

Hello all,
I've been watching this forum for some time already, and today I bought me a 2007 XKR Convertible.
Next Saturday I'm going to pick it up.
Before this car I drove a merc 2013 SLK (CDI),
and before that a 2003 Ford Thunderbird (LPG), which had a lot of parts in common with some Jaguar models.

As soon as I have the XKR, I will have it converted to LPG a few weeks later,
and I already have an idea about enabling a coolant temperature indicator (bluetooth OBD - Arduino - 1.6" LCD display)

Hoping you all stay healthy

Attached a picture of the XKR after the test drive, and a picture of the Thunderbird.

Welcome to the forums Cabrio Bob,

Good to have you with us.

It sounds like you've already found your way to the XK8/XKR 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. You can also use the Europe Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/europe-42/ to find other members in your region.

Please 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
