New XK8 convertible owner from Maine
Hello folks. I'm a new 2000, Topaz Metalic, XK8 convertible owner! I fell for the car a month ago, and traded that day and drove it home. The car has been always stored Winters, has never seen snow, and only had 49k Miles....Just what I was looking for. Needless to say my wife got a surprise when she got home from work and opened the garage door
Her 1st words were "what is that"??
We both love it, and though the top down season up here is about over...We've already put some miles on the car.
Great board here. I've already learned a lot from my early on lurking.
Regards,
Todd
