Default Well, hello.

I'm Robert, I am a Ford dealer technician and small shop owner, and I live in Lawton, Oklahoma. I usually buy cars to repair and resell, or to keep myself and use them to attract business. I usually stick to American-made cars, or something I'm familiar with. Well, my fiancée, bless her heart, came across an '89 Jaguar XJS V-12, and the owner, who is one of her co-workers, offered to sell it to her and I for $500. As I was assessing fire damage and other problems, she agreed to the deal. So now we have a new cat. We're researching parts right now, but we haven't decided if we're going to try to get it running ( it had a small engine/electrical fire under the hood, but no major damage) or part it out. And that is why I'm here: to pick brains and gather information. I'll get some pictures of it at some point and share them here.

Welcome to the forum Robert,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

Follow Norri's link in post #3 to the XJS forum for help, advice and information.
The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for info on regular issues.

Please remember to add vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. Go to the User CP button on the left of the top menu bar, then Settings & Options under Your Control Panel. Select Edit Signature and enter the details.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
