Default new XJR owner

I recently purchased a 1996 XJR. This is my first Jag. I live in Lancaster PA and teach at The University of the Sciences in Philadelphia...don't panic, I take the train and the Jag will not be a daily driver, more of a weekend occasional show car...it is very nice with very low miles. I have owned Triumphs, Healys, Corvettes Miatas, and lots of older Volvos , my daily driver is a 94 Dodge Dakota 4 wheel drive 318 with headers and a cam...a great old truck.
Anything i should be aware of?
Can anyone from the area recommend a place to replace the headliner?
What should I expect to pay for this service?
I am considering putting Classic tags on the XJ...if I read the regs right 10 years old and no longer produced should qualify?
Is there a Pennsylvania mid state Jaguar club?
Thanks in advance,
Charles Myers
