Oldie/Newby saying hello from Western Canada
Good day all.
Just picked up a 2007 XK. I had owned an XJ and an S type in the '70s so it's nice to get back into the brand.
After a recent bike crash, which left me still somewhat fragile and not yet approved to ride, I thought I needed another vehicle apart from the wife's Prius and my Tundra until I am back on two wheels.
So far I am really happy with the XK. In hindsight maybe I should of looked for an R, but the standard XK is good fun and I'm looking forward to using it as a GT which is what it was intended for.
Not sure how active I will be in the forum, as I am in several bike and aircraft forums, but I'll try and make an effort to participate.
Have a good one.

Greetings Andrew and welcome to JF.
Yes, the XK8 is a great GT ride, so best wishes for a safer time on four wheels.
Bunch of great people and sound advice here on the XK8/XKR sub-forum.
Cheers,

Hello, Andrew,
I'm sorry to read about your bike crash, but I'm glad you're on the mend.
Congratulations on your new Jaguar! That will keep you entertained while you convalesce.
