Default 2003 XK8, Well she is home!

So far it appears I have picked another nice car off of Ebay with no issues that want to **** me off. ha ha ha
It does have two new tires up front and used up in the back, but the fronts are Kuhmo so won't be hard to match. The interior is in clean soft shape. Seats are good. Everything works. 96k on the speedo. Handles well, does have a rattle in the left rear (bushing, shock/strut/) needs an alignment and there is a shimmy at 75. I suspect when they put the new tires on that was just it, no align and bal was not done right I hope.
I need to find a top boot, and a 2003 owners manual.
