First, I'd like to say that this is a great forum. A lot of useful info and tips.

I've always love Jaguar cars ever since I was a wee-teen, and that's way too many years ago to count. My current Jag is a 1997 Vanden Plas in Topaz and Oatmeal, which I'd bought many years ago - was a great deal, a lot of luxury and fun for reasonable cash. Here's a picture of her right before I shipped her back home. Always worked on the car myself. Really haven't had any major issues other than the ones caused by wife and kids! haha

Anyway, my latest trouble is the front passenger side wiring harness. For some mysterious reason, when my wife was driving the Jag, the entire passenger side front harness got pulled out (together with the inner fender) and wrapped around the front axle (see picture) - heart sank to my knees! Fortunately, I'd found an entire passenger side front harness on EBay, so hopefully, I can redo the harness without much drama. Anyway, wish me luck!

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all!

Cheers.
