Default New STR Owner

Hey everyone,

I've just purchased a 2005 Jaguar STR from, don't shoot me... Copart!

It's a category N due to damage down the nearside of the car, affecting the front quarter panel, both doors, wing mirror unit and rear wheel arch.

The car also has an ABS and DSC fault on the dash, along with a very undercharged battery - I've read a lot of the threads across this forum about this issue, hoping it will be resolved with a battery change, but will (attempt to!) properly diagnose once I'm in receipt of the car.

Also needs new tyres and discs/pads all round.

I'm sure you'll be hearing lots from me over the coming weeks, looking forward to getting stuck in.

Any questions or advice, please do drop in!
