Hello all,
I’m from Durham in the North of England. Just acquired a 2005 XK8 4.2S Coupe to replace the 2001 XK8 I’ve run for the last five years. This is my ninth Jaguar in thirty five years. In that time, most of what can go wrong with a Jaguar probably has at one time or another, but I still enjoy owning and driving these superb cars.

Welcome to the forum GGG. Great area you are in. My ex inlaws are Leadgate.

Thanks Richard.

I see you're now in Brittany. After the storms we had here yesterday, I know which I'd prefer!

Jim,

Thanks for updating my forum access.

I was in your part of the world last week - my latest XK8 came from Parks Jaguar at Ayr.

Regards,
Graham
