Default New xk8 coupe owner (Florida)

Just wanted to introduce myself. Just purchase a crashed 1997 xk8 coupe with only 34k, looks like minor damage. We will see. The car runs and drives. Pictures coming soon

Hello and welcome to jaguarforums.com. I know that you are anxious to get started and we are anxious to meet you and talk about your car. We have a baseline / criteria that must be met before full access can be granted. Please enjoy the forum and be patient once the baseline has been satisfied full access will be granted.

Oh one other thing you need to put your car details in your signature. I am speaking of the Year, Make & Model. Without it you may not get the input you are looking for.

Wyseman7:

You might want to look for import salvage yards in your area that have XK8's. I found a bunch of XK8's @ Car-Parts.com within 3 hrs.

Coventry West in East Atlanta/Lithonia is another source for used parts--a huge salvage yard and a sponsor of this Forum.
