Hello everyone. Monday (8/4) my '99 XJ8 was trailered off as a donation to Rawhide, and that was a sad thing. However, I have now replaced that car with a '98 XJ8 Long Wheelbase car, which I bought from Forum member Ross. While I liked my '99, I love the '98, which Ross has kept in excellent condition. Thanks to Ross for a nice car, and thanks to all of you who have followed this little saga. I'm glad to have another Jaguar, and I look forward to continued visits to the Forum.

 

Hi Chris,
I enjoyed meeting you and wish you and the old gal the best. I hope your '99 will see life again and perhaps inspire some young man to take up a trade working with machinery.
If ever in my neighborhood stop over for a pint on me.

 

Congrats Chris - this is a sad story with a happy (although expensive) outcome. I'm sure the '98 will be the enjoyable experience that you've been looking for.
