just drove my xk8 500mi one way so far. Laz. had no problems got 400 miles out of the tank (filled up at a 1/4 tank) did 80 to 90 mph the whole way. after this trip i think im in love with my jag Lazarus

 

We took the XKR from Houston to Vegas and back earlier this year - it is only on those longer trips that you really appreciate the "Grand Tourer" monica - Wish I could get the same range on a tank but that aint gonna happen!

 

i have a 2012 Mazda 5. there is no way my wife or I would of made it in that car the ride is stiff as well as the seats........the jag is the only way to fly...lol

 

So what does that work out in MPG?

I've moved you over here to the XK8/R section, you'll like it here!

Welcome to the forum Torres. What's a Jag Lazarus?

 

I'm guessing it's one that came back from the dead?

 

made me chuckle beauregard

 

That's a good looking color, somewhat unusual I think.

After a good sorting out of the usual older car problems my 2000 XK8 has become a pretty reliable car.

Once I came to understand that 1990's era electronics simply don't last forever and replaced the usual suspects (ABS rebuild, Throttle Body rebuild, MAFS, Brake Switch, Trans fluid, new battery) all the other oddball codes that used to come up seemed to go away.

The key to keeping mechanical things happy is to use them frequently.

Welcome!
