Engine oil & filter.
Spark plugs
Injectors ultrasonic clean & new filters/o-rings fitting.
Brake calliper service kit
Brake pads all round.
Brake oil flush & re-fill
Cooling system flush, new thermostat & anti-freeze re-fill.
Full tank of high octane petrol

Welcome to the forum Gary,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums. That's your weekend work list! Are you planning to get any sleep.

Follow this link XK8 / XKR - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to the XK8/XKR forum for help, advice and information.
The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for info on regular issues. I know you've already found the RealGauge Prize draw so no need for a link.

You can also visit the UK Region forum by following this link UK - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum
to find other members in this country.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
