Default Technical Repair Manuals

Can anyone tell me if there are Technical Repair Manuals available for the 03 XJ8? I have seen the ones you can buy on ebay, but I have been burnt by ebay and manuals before unless you know of one that is good.

It looks like I am picking up my 03 on Monday and would like to make sure that anything that may go wrong in the future I can fix.

Thanks in advance,

I have had my 2003 XJ8 Sovereign since May and it has been great so far. It has 50,000 miles on it now and drives like a new car. I bought a repair manual CD (about $20) off Ebay from an excellent seller called itgetsnobetter. He advertises in Ebay Motors, search for Jaguar workshop manuals.
The cd I bought has been very useful, but there was a steep learning curve for me finding the info I wanted on it. Read the 'how to use section' first or ask a teenager! My kids had no problem navigating at all.
I also subscribed to Alldatadiy.com- not as much info but easier to use.
Me, I'm used to the old fashioned Haynes manuals, complete with greasy pages and spark plug gaps scrawled in the margins!

I had to futz around with it, but following the prompts definately worked.
