Default First 3 months with my xk8

Hi
I've gone from a big lump of a grand voyager to a 98 xk8 convertible and I can't wipe the smile off my face.
Happy days
Ant

Talk about a different image! Remember, cargo space is limited, so pack carefully

My wonderful wife has taken on a new (albeit, slightly smaller) people carrier to allow me the pleasure of the jag.
That said, we got an impressive amount of stuff in the boot on our first trip away in it.

I have to agree. I spend more time than is healthy turning back to look at it when I've just parked.
If I could just get rid of the UK required front plate I'd be even happier.
