Hello All,

Glad to be part of the forum.

I have an XJ8 2000 4.0 Sovereign. I've had it for almost 4 years, it was a 40th birthday present to myself. Always wanted a Jag since I was a little lad (as did my Dad, but I beat him to it!)

I am a complete non-techie re cars (I can just about manage putting petrol in)

Lovely car, but now having a few problems (will post separately).

Hope my posts aren't deemed too stupid but please be patient with a loyal fan of the car but not the workings of an engine, etc!!!

 

Hi lofty, welcome aboard, from just over the water.

Don't worry about stupid questions, we all have to learn, and anyhow if something is bothering you, then the question is not stupid.

 

welcome aboard lofty
Upgraded you manually to FFA so you can enjoy all the forums benefits.
Translators right, no question is stupid, it all depends on peoples skill levels and we're all different. You should only ever get helpful posts / replies here as it is a very friendly forum with great members / techs.

See you around the site no doubt Emjoy.....

 

Welcome, it was a great present
Feel free to ask any question as our dear team already said

 

Welcome. I have had several questions, and the members here are always glad to help those of us who are mechanically chalenged.

 

Welcome....40 is a great milestone to get a Jag....and a XK8 is a great choice....now you can swing by the Rugby club in sunny Wales and have some fun.

Cheers

 

Welcome

Most of the common faults with these cars are fixable if you catch them early, and don't ignore them.
