Default 98 xjr

Hey guys whats up, I just bought a 98 Jaguar XJR (X308 chassis I think)
all stock in British Racing Green, it has a blown differential, broken hood latch release/cable, broken cup holder...maybe an oil leak from the valve cover. I received a box of parts in the trunk with the car. I'm playing detective right now.
I'm potentially writing a DIY for the Diff removal...I've taken off the rear sway bar and undone the rear half shafts. Been trolling the site alot and decided I should join up.
thanks
Paul
