Default New xk x150 owner

Hi,
Had the car a couple of weeks now,very pleased with it,1 owner from new,84k miles,liquid silver. Feels like a new car,no suspension bush creaks or rattles,gearbox smooth as silk,I found the previous owners number in the paperwork and rang him from the dealership,he told me it was a fantastic car. Had to put a nav disc in it which I got off eBay for £29.99. Only trouble with it is the headlights are a bit oxidised at the top so I'm trying to decide,based on all the posts I've read,whether it's worth renovating them.
Favourite feature,other than looks,the speed it gets up to temperature,very nice this time of year in the Uk.
Thing I hate- the aerial,so old fashioned. I'm not spending a fortune on a new spoiler with one in. I've read about a chap who took the 3rd brake light out and put a rubber aerial in there and pulled the fuse.
ive had several jags over the years,my last one was an 01 mistral blue xjr, the xk is nicer tho.
Cheers Pete
