Default Saying Whats Up..

Hey guys, i'm new to the forum and the Jaguar game.

The names Chris, im 22 soon to be 23. I've own BMW's 5 to be exact. still own two(2000 Z3 2.3 manual, also a 2001 530i manual aswell so i needed an automatic (lol).

I have always been a huge jag fan by heart, up until a week ago i become one with a full pledge. I bought my boss's dads 2003 XJ8 sport, only has 59,000 on her.

Since he had way to many cars he decided to part with this one, I bought it for $5,000.00 USD (yes an amazing steal) he owed me a favor so he decided to sell her pretty cheap.

Its Shadow Grey, with Beige interior, Ive put about 500 miles on her already and can i say amazing, I know its a co-owned Ford Motor but what a hell of a machine.

All i can say is im ready for the DIY. Both my Bimmers have been worked on me and only me. So im ready to take on a new challenge!

Thanks for your time! Hope to be bugging you guys soon.

Chris.

Welcome!

I *think* the motor is the last one jaguar designed without Ford. You will be very happy with the sport- Looking forward to seeing you on the boards!
