Default new XJL owner

Hey all, I am located in Shanghai, China and I just bought a brand new XJL 3.0 cavier/black. I'm hoping to gain some knowledge in this new (to me) brand of cars and the incredible history that it possess. I'm already looking to find some 20" oem wheels that comes with the 5.0's over in the NA. My 3.0 only comes with 18" stock. I'm originally from Vancouver but now living in Shanghai. Loving the new direction Jag is going. Hope to meet some great friends here, I have met many great friends from other car forums, hope to meet some here! Thanks guys.

Peter

Hello and welcome to jaguarforums.com. I know that you are anxious to get started and we are anxious to meet you and talk about your car. We have a baseline / criteria that must be met before full access can be granted. Please enjoy the forum and be patient once the baseline has been satisfied full access will be granted. Please continue to post and accept my welcome to the forum.

One other thing you need to put your car details in your signature. I am speaking of the Year, Make & Model. Without it you may not get the input you are looking for.

Please take a moment and read the information provided to you explaining the rules. Be patient and enjoy the site.

Also, should you have questions related to your vehicle please post it in the section for your model year (MY) car. This way you will reach all the members that are familiar with your MY car.
