Default New Owner saying Hello

Hi everyone, I am picking up my new (to me) XJ8 this weekend! I will post pics when I get the car. This is a dream car for me and is in the exact color combo I wanted, bought from an awesome guy. The interior is flawless and only some minor hiccups on the exterior. I can't wait! This has had the conversion on the air suspension too =) I am excited to be a part of the club!

Well, to follow up I have had pretty much every issue that these beauties are known for. Fuel pump, water pump, suspension, PVC, Thermostat, Heater core, you name it and it has given me problems. I have spent way too much money on the car, but I still love it. I will post more about it later. I have tripled in repair costs what I paid for the car. If the tranny doesn't give me any problems I believe I know have a damn near like new 2004.
