Serpentine belts
You learn something new everyday.
l didnt realize that there is at a stretch more than one 'size' of serpentine belt for your car. The lenght of the XK8 here is 91 but you can go a size up or down you now have 3 options. Also the required belt is 7 ribbed wide, but you can get away with a six rib wide, plus your size either way, now you have six options. Now all you need is a helpful parts person.
lm not saying this is good practice, but at a pinch it will get you out of trouble as i found XK8 belts are not in every store, well a six rib 91 for 130kms and counting will
