Default I am new here as well!

Hello, My name is Mark. And I just bought a 2003 X Type. I usually hang out on Jag- Lovers because I have a 1986 XJ6 as well that I am restoring. But someone on Facebook told me about this forum yesterday. So, here I am ! So far this place seems great! All of you have some really nice cars. And I am really looking forward to spending time on here and getting to know you guys. I cant wait to " FIX " my X Type up. Here are some pics to get started.
As you can see, I have only had the car about a week.

Mark, welcome to the Forums. I think you will like it here. We try to keep things lively and interesting yet getting to the point of providing fixes for things. I am sure you will be seeing me around. I am always "tinkering". You never know what my next project might be. So, sit back, grab a cup of Joe and read away. I think you will find a lot of very useful information around here. If you have any questions, ask away. Someone will come by and give you an answer or two.

Nice looking car Mark. Not sure how you will get back to working on your Series III after sampling this one. Not sure I could go back after getting my newish XJ8. Do you still want that tool box ?????.

Hi Bob, Yes I do. I will be contacting you soon to finish that up. I'm waiting on my IRS check to show up. This is a really cool car. But I still really love my Series III car. How are you?

No rush Mark i was just wondering after seeing your X-type. I am doing fine if only I could get this rear inner door panel off my car without damaging it. Cannot find anybody that knows how to do it, even the Jaguar dealership near me is not sure.

Well that dealer does not sound very competent if they dont know. Have you asked on J-L?
