Default New - XJS & DDS owner

Hi,
as an active poster, I'm new to this forum, but I've read already hundreds of very helpful posts during the past months. Thanks for this!
Last year, after my belove Audi Convertible had been completely destroyed by a senior citizen trying to park his Mitsubishi, I bought a beautiful XJS 2+2 Convertible. When the winter came nearer, I started feeling sorry for the XJS, having no garage to put it in. So I rented a garage for it, but decided to buy another Jaguar, better prepared for snow, salt etc. And I bought a 1997 Daimler Double Six (LWB) in really perfect shape. Now I start to feel sorry for the DDS, having no garage to put it in...
Both cars are European (German) versions, both with some 120.000 kms. I'm now completing the few parts that are lacking, which seems to be rather difficult, as there are more parts than I thought that can only be found 2nd hand.
Best regards from Heidelberg, Germany
Martin

Welcome to the forum Martin,

Keep the Jaguars away from urban tractors.

You'll probably already know your way to the tech sections here but if not, follow this link XJS - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to the XJS section and this one XJ ( X305 ) XJ12 - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to the X305 section for help, advice and information.

You may also like to visit the European Region section by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/europe-42/ to find other members in mainland Europe.

Enjoy the forum.

Graham
