Hello Jag Form, I'm Luis from Long Island NY researching the XK lineup. I was looking into a BMW 6 series and never considered Jaguar. After stumbling on the XK i am very impressed. I have done a lot of research between the two variants (4.2L and 5.0L). I think i have settled on the 2010 (US version) as reviews I have read indicate a much better ride from the new suspension upgrade from CATS. Also the 5.0 normal aspirated 5.0L engine seems plenty.
I currently have a Acura TL 2007 and i do most of the work / maint myself (spring/struts upgrade, gaskets, plugs, egr clean out, brakes, flushing fluids (brake, power steering) and some body work. One thing i have not been able to locate are service / repair manuals for the XK. Haynes doesn't even offer a manual. Does the form know if these documents are available and if so where?

Look forward to purchasing an XK and enjoying the experience.

Regards,
