Hello everyone, just joined the forums! I purchased a 1985 XJS a few weeks ago and, not being very familiar with anything about Jaguar ownership,have been looking for good resources of information. This forum seems relatively active and informative, looking forward to learning and sharing information about the Jag!

Congrats on the XJS. Neat car.

Nice colour, not many of them that colour, here in the UK anyway.

 

Yes, it seems to be pretty uncommon. The previous owner told me it's "antelope"...looks like a dark bronze. I had my heart set on black but this one was just too nice. Had been owned by the same family since new.

 

nice looking car.
Use good gasoline. Change the oil often, or use a quality synthetic and change the filter often.
Keep an eye on the HEAT.
