Thumbs up New member intro

Hi - I am a new member from Phoenix, Arizona (home of the deep freeze this week) and own a 2000 XK8. Its given me plenty of fun and the periodic headaches that are uniquely Jag!

Welcome to the forum Kal, its funny but I get a mental block trying to picture Arizona and deep freeze at the same time.

Good to see you.

Welcome to the forum Kal,

I expect your tounge was firmly lodged in your cheek with the deep freeze comment.

Hello Kal and welcome to jaguarforums.com. I know that you are anxious to get started and we are anxious to meet you and talk about your car. We have a baseline / criteria that must be met before full access can be granted. Please enjoy the forum and be patient once the baseline has been satisfied full access will be granted.

Oh one other thing you need to put your car details in your signature. I am speaking of the Year, Make & Model. Without it you may not get the input you are looking for.

Thank you. I was serious about the freeze - the temps in the morn was in the 20's (definitely that would be a warm day in Chicago). Now the storm is in Dallas - snow for the Super Bowl

Welcome to the forum Kal! You won't be disappointed with the breadth and depth of knowledge available here. This forum has saved my tail too many times to mention. My Jag would've been gone a long time ago, had it not been for the help received here. Don't be afraid to search the threads, and ask when help is needed. Also, please share your own experiences when you see an opening to do so. Enjoy your ride!

Smile New member welcome

Thanks to Rae and JimC64 - very impressed with the detailed knowledge of the experts. Love the XK8 and would like to keep it going albeit at my cost rather than dealer/shop price tag!
