Greetings,
I am new to the forum and to Jaguar. I do not own one YET but will. I have always loved the jag, the XKE but who hasn't. I am looking to purchase a xk8 or a xj8 I think. Right now I am in the learning mode, all the different names and models, what to watch out for when buying etc. I have not even been in a Jaguar for 45 years, I was ten when I rode in one and still remember the ride, the dash, the leather, and the car!
Anyway I hope to have my Jaguar by the end of the 2013 or early spring 14
Thank you in advance
Jeff

Welcome to the forum Jeff,

Good to have you here with us at Jaguar forums.

Check the individual model tech sections for help, advice and information.
The 'HOW TO' thread at the top of each is a good place to start for info on regular issues.

You can also visit the US Western Region section by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/w...t-hi-wa-id-38/ to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the search for your Jaguar and enjoy the forum.

welcome to the forum and soon the Jag family - happy hunting - plenty out there but doing the research now will make the purchase all the more enjoyable. The forum is a great place for info and support - best tool in the owners tool box

Welcome! I spent months on the forum reading, reading, reading before I made my purchase.

You will find each model section probably has a lot of opinions of what year, trim level, sub-model is best.

An informed decision is always best.
