Default New Member - P/U 2000 XK8 this weekend

Great site and was a great help in indentifying issues. Picking up a 2000 XK8 Convertible with <60K miles this weekend. From information gathered on this site I will be doing the tensioners and timing chains next week. Last 2 English cars were a 1980 TR-7 and a 1980 Rover 3500. Hoping for better luck this time!

Welcome to the forum Dave,

Car looks great. Good to hear you found useful information here to help in searching for it.

You know your way around so no need for a link to the XK8/XKR section.

Remember to add vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. Go to the User ID button on the left of the top menu bar, then Settings & Options under Your Control Panel. Select Edit Signature and enter the details.

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

Enjoy the forum.

Graham
