Default Hi from the back of beyond!!

Hello everyone! Just got myself an XJ-S absolutely love the car! Of course she is already causing problems (mainly with the wife when I turned up back home in yet another ‘new’ car - few nights on the sofa for me!)
the old girl needs a fair bit of work (the jag not the nag!) so will be on here quite a lot I think! Please let me know what you think of the old girl!

Welcome to the forums Pete,

Looks good - they are getting very hard to find.

I can see you've already found your way to the XJS 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.

Please 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 UK & Eire Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/uk-eire-68/ to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham

Hello, Pete,
You deserve a few nights on the couch if you call your wife The Nag in public, even if she is.
Welcome to the forums from ElinorB.

Can't expect a Californian to know that "Nag" is considered as a term of endearment up north.

Haha very very true, I’m a Lancashire lad originally, and I have many ‘unique’ terms of endearment for my wife which in public would cause a sharp intake of breath! But what’s life if you can’t have a bit of banter with the old girl!
