Default First Jag

hey guys, just bought a classic 1982 XJ6!!
I've always loved them but never owned one. Since it's a 30 year old car, I expect some quirks and bugs but so far I'm in love with this car. Any tips and pointers for things to look out for would be much appreciated. I'm pumped I found this site!!

thanks for the welcomes and thanks for upgrading me Jim...
truth is, I hadn't really considered myself a "jag" guy but I was in the right place at the right time and ended up the owner of a series III. I'm sure it's no surprise to you guys, I'm quickly converting lol...there's an unexplainable attraction to driving this damn car.

Be prepared for a bit of maintenance and repair work !! Oh, and driving enjoyment. These cars have a wonderful ride; i still remember mine. Petrol consumption is too much for England petrol prices these days.
