Default Thank you...

Just a quick note of thanks to all here for the help, encouragement, tech tips, suggestions plus the downloadable manuals and the videos.

These were all immeasurably helpful to me.

I sold the car, so farewell and enjoy those big cats.

Hope the issues with the XK8 haven't put you off another Jaguar some time in the future.

I really enjoyed driving my XK8, but here in Mexico there just isn't enough back up... If my throttle body failed, the car would be out of commission for a month or more, and that wasn't sitting too well with me.

I would definitely like another Jaguar though -newer with low miles. So you guys in Texas and Florida keep that in mind when you want to sell!

Right now I have a Corvette convertible which is a totally different type of car. Our long and straight roads are perfect and as with the Jaguar the car is super rare...

Happily I did get seen by the nurse in my emergency room, and I'm much better now!
