I have the Haynes, a copy of the factory manual, (ebay) but the BEST thing to do is download Kirby Palms book, "Experience in a book". 700+ pages and its free. Read it ALL!
This forum, "and others", has been far more valuable than manuals. Read as manny posts as you can! Your going to need a LOT of help!

Kirby's book is very good. It has info you'll never find in the service manuals

Experience in a Book

The factory parts catlog is very useful as well as the illustrations are good.

You'll want the S57 wiring guide as well.


You can get manual, tech supplements, etc here as well:

Jaguar Heritage. Technical Publication DVDs

Some of the Jaguar parts vendors tock these DVDs ^^

Cheers

Also....

Go to the 'How To' sticky thread at the top of this section. Select Downloads, the Tech Guide. You'll then see ton of great XJS technical info.
