Hey everybody! My name is Jeff and I am an Autoholic...

OMG!!! I just picked up an '04 XJ8. Went in to buy a Mini Cooper and left with a Jag! 1 owner, spotless Carfax, brand new Michelins and only 122K on the clock. I didn't know what I was missing all this time. I am so stoked! Can't wait to give him a good scrubbing and throw some pics up...

Also, just wanted to say, thanks a lot for letting me in the party!

Welcome to this friendly and helpful Forum.
No contest between a Mini and an XJ8 - just think how many more bits you get to mend !
We'll wait with interest for those pics.

Welcome to the forum.

Good to see you.

Great looking Jag you have there.

You going to do something about that plate holder on the front?

Thanks a lot, guys! In Texas, we have to have two plates, so when I get my tags, I'll have to put a plate on there.
