Default XK8 owner Los Angeles

Hi everyone

My name is James and I recently acquired a 2000 XK8 convertible in black,

I'm originally from the UK and recently moved to Los Angeles, where I purchased the car.

It runs smoothly but I'm looking to learn as much as possible about this car and how to maintain and look after it

I'm 23 and this is the first car I've ever owned. An unusual choice I know but hopefully, you'll appreciate it!

If any of you are in the LA area please do say hi!

Cheers
James

Welcome to the forums James,

Good to have you with us. To ensure your first Jaguar experience is a good one, read up on plastic tensioners and the cooling system.

The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information on regular issues.
