Default Goodbye BMW….. Hello XK!

Hello I’m Chris, I live in Sutton Coldfield, near Birmingham UK.
I work for Honeywell as a Digital Transformation Leader and for the past four years have worked from home. As I no longer need a company car it seemed a great time to get something for the weekend, so a couple of weeks ago I bought a Jaguar, a 2007 XK 4.2. I have to admit as soon as I heard that V8 my heart ruled my head… so I just hope I have bought a good one!
I am totally new to Jag ownership so I’m glad to see such a wealth of knowledge and experience among the members of this forum.
