New owner of 1996 XJR
I am new to Jaguars but have been around cars all of my life.
About Me - I am 38 years old and live in Sharpsburg, Georgia which is about 35 miles south of Atlanta. I am married with 2 kids and work in manufacturing. I have several project vehicles that I try to work on when I get a chance. The one I am almost finished with is a 1994 Ford Lightning that I put a all aluminum 500 hp 408 windsor in with a TKO 5-speed. The other project is for my youngest son. Right now its a rusted out 1965 Ford Mustang convertible.
About the Jag - I just bought a 1996 XJR with 200k miles for $2k. It needs everything though and I have just began working on it. So far I have replaced the steering rack, power steering pump, coils, fixed the wiring in the trunk, fixed both front windows, and started to replace the entire stereo system.
I will try and post pics soon.
Thanks
Ryan

Welcome to the forum Ryan,
Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.
I can see you've already found your way to the X300 tech forum so there's no need for a link to it from me. The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for info on regular issues.
Please remember to add vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. Go to the User CP 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 USA Lower Atlantic Region forum by following this link USA Lower Atlantic - NC SC FL GA - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to find other members in your region.
Enjoy the forums.
