Default 1998 XK8 driver’s manual

Hi everyone, I’m a newbie.
my wife just picked up a 1998 XK8 convertible 3 weeks ago and the car does not have the literature pack. Can anyone recommend a place to get one or can they be down loaded on line or can you get this pack on a disk?

Look in the sticky's for download of manuals. You may need ten posts to be able to download, not sure what the rule is.

Welcome to the forums Peter,

Full details here:
https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x...006-faq-67827/

I wouldn't see anyone stuck for basic information so here's a link to the Driver's Handbook to get you started:
http://www.mediafire.com/?s7k291s15ctkgkc

As a newbie, this link to my MediaFire storage may not be active for you. If so, copy and past it into your browser.

Bit of a critic, eh?

The link to the THREAD ( https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x...006-faq-67827/ ) works. The temporary link I posted link to the Driver's Handbook specifically for Peterd in post #2 does not because I removed the source file after he'd downloaded it.

No, I'm not being critical, or at least I didn't mean to.
I did not realize it was only for only one person.

YES - the second link was for the specifically for the 1998 Driver's Handbook. Newbies can't download attachments from the forum so I put that one in a location for Peterd to download without having to wait for the qualifying membership period to elapse. The first link goes to my thread with ALL the Vehicle Document Sets.

As the second link (and effectively the thread) is redundant, I've now CLOSED it.
