Default New member intro

Hi,
I've been a long time browser of Jaguar Forum and have found it useful for some of my troublesome XJ's issues. I've owned it for about 12 years and in that time it's had many issues from wiper motors freezing up to transmission rebuilds starting from about 50,000 km. It has only now completed about 135,000 km. And it continues to have issues.

I've been a Jaguar enthusiast for 40 odd years, but a reluctant owner with passion over-riding common sense. I now believe you need deep pockets to own these wonderful but flawed vehicles. Anyway, I get a lot of comfort knowing that I am not alone when I read the posts on this site and look forward to deriving more solutions in the future. I think it is a wonderful site!

Neil

Welcome to the forum Neil.
I will add you to the NSW roll call thread.

Flawed, never noticed. Too busy filling my pockets to keep it on the road.

Welcome to the forum Neil,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

I can see you've already found your way to the X308 tech 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 info on regular issues.

You can also visit the Australia - NSW Region forum by following this link Australia - New South Wales / ACT - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum
to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham

Hello, Neil,
Yes, one either needs Deep pockets or willingness to crawl under them on occasion.
Most people in here belong to the latter category.
