Hi all!

i just bought my father’s 1998 XK8. He bought it new in ‘98 and, due to needing to downsize, sold it to me. I’ve lived this car since he brought it home and I’m so lucky to have it now.

Its not perfect and needs a little work (little things...I’m going to have questions ) but she’s beautiful!

Welcome to the Forums.

Well done.

"Lived/loved" all the same in Jag talk.

Good luck.

Hello, John,
I agree with Grant above; Lived and Loved are the same thing regarding one's beloved Jag!
Congratulations on your new ownership of this car. And Good On your dad for letting you have it!
