new to the world of jaguars, usualy tinkering away with old land rovers so you can probably imagine irs all a bit of a learning curve but im enjoying it so far!
I can see you've already found your way to the X308 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 information on regular issues.

You and me both! Looks like we both got into the same car at about the same time. I also have Series 2 Discovery, so am not scared of waving a spanner or two!

my daily driver is an 1986 ex mod 110,
even the disco 2 was abit too complicated for me haha.
ive had a few disco 1's, made a pickup truck out of one, loved them but the insurance is silly money on them for me now .. cheap on XJR though, odd really.
I always liked the spare mounted on the bonnet too. It deters all but the strongest thieves although it does impede the view!
That's a very substantial looking roof rack.

i made it tie in to the internal roll cage, it is a bit too heavy tbh but its only carries light loads.
i did do a fair bit to make it more comfortable,it came with upgraded exmoor seats and the roll cage (it was an army upgrade) and ive added a slick shift, MOD insulation kit, webasto heater and a 300tdi engine.
but the hard clutch line failed last week and i started driving the jag everyday, other than already filling up 3 times ive gotta say,im not sure i can go back to it
The comfort and cruising ability of Jaguars does become addictive. The farthest I took my X308 was to Barcelona in two days. Here it is parked in the Old Port.
Good to be here with like minded people. I keep thinking I should move my Disco on and get something newer, but I just love the old girl. I have fixed all the usual troubles they have, so reckon its now a keeper.
I agree that driving the Jaguar is in a league of its own, even after mine now turning 20. But also a nice leather clad Disco 2 is a similar experience I think. I will dig out some snaps to post.
