Hi,
We are John and Amy, new owners of a 03 XKR convertible.
We did a lot of research on this forum and others before picking this
over an XK8. The supercharger makes a big difference.
We looked for months before finding the right combination of condition,
miles, color, etc.. before we found this great one in Florida. We live in
Ohio and they are very rare up here. Flew down over a weekend and drove it home.
Previous owners of a 1966 XKE series 1 FHC. Was a fantastic car and have regretted selling it ever since.
If there are any local Jag clubs near Dayton, Ohio, we would like to hear from you.

Welcome to the forum!

I have always found it quite a thrill buying a Jaguar out of state and driving it home. Congrats on the new wheels.

Welcome to the forum John and Amy,

(I've merged your 2 Intro threads and rotated the photo)

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

Great colour combination. I had the same on a 2001 XK8 Coupe.

It sounds like you've already found your way to the X350 tech forum so there's no need for a link to it from me.
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.

You can also visit the USA Mid West Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/usa-mid-west-il-ia-mi-mn-mo-oh-wi-39/
to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
