Hello everyone. This looks like a great forum. I bought my first Jaguar today. 2001 XK8, 73000 miles. I am learning about it quickly, but right now I don't even know the name of the color. It is a Blue Gray with Ivory interior. In my eyes it is beautiful. I am looking forward to learning alot about the car from the forum. Hopefully I can provide useful information to others in the future. I will create a signature and post pictures when I learn how. Thanks Edd.
