Smile New XK 2014 owner

Hi, just wanted to say hi and get any good tips. love the X150, British Racing Green. Anyway, I’m going to get the BoVee Bluetooth thing and started to treat the rust that’s coming underneaths. Any other new user tips please?
also, the passenger side door trim doesn’t fit correctly at the top, looks like someone didn’t fit it to the clip correctly.
do I need to take it off again to locate the clip?

many thanks

Welcome to the club. And congrats on choosing the right colour!
You’ll notice many of us use a signature block so that we can quick reference the cars to provide better assistance.

Cars are getting old and perhaps the door trim was mettled with. Coincidentally, I just replaced the trim and weatherstripping.
You can try to take it off carefully, recompress the clips and reinstall. You may get a little more mileage out of it.

Most importantly, keep of with the mechanical systems maintenance or great big problems and bills will start presenting themselves.
There are plenty of threads to that end.
Cheers!

First things first - get a battery maintainer and hook it up
Then check for any leaks - inside and out.
finally go have some fun
