Hi,
my name is Jacopo, classic cars enthusiast.
I live in Italy, Lake Maggiore area.
I own a 1999 XK8 Coupe recently imported from UK as a restoration project.

Hi Jacopo, Happy to see British car's lover form Italy especially from the Lake Maggiore area. I take a look to YouTube, and see that it's one of the most beautiful region in Europe.
Restoring an XK8 is a very enthusiastic program. I'll follow it

I also love Italian cars. My current restauration project is an Italian car, FIAT124 Spider (1978) and my Jaguar XKR-S comes from Italy)

Welcome to the forums Jacopo,

Good to have you with us.

I can see you've already found your way to the XK8/XKR forum so there's no need for a link to it from me. The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information on regular issues. You can also use the Europe Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/europe-42/ to find other members in your region.

Please add vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. Go to the User CP button on the left of the top menu bar, then Settings & Options under Your Control Panel. Select Edit Signature and enter the details.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
