Hi, I am Jörg. Here goes my short intro.
I had been looking at this wonderful cat on the dealers web-page for weeks. Looked absolute gorgeous.
Last weekend I took a 5 hours drive to have a proper look. I was in awe. The cat looked fantastic, even better than on the pics. After a short test drive I decided to buy straight away. The xk8 convertible, MY05, 58k miles is my first jag.
The dealer drives a xk8 himself and the car looked overall in a very good condition. It will get new MOT, tyres and some cosmetics done before I will pick her up end of Nov.
In the mean time I have to read, read, read and study as much about the car as possible. This seems to be the place to do this. Looking forward to learn from you forum experts. Tx.
End of November - that's a long time to wait. It does look georgous. I wonder what cosmetic work needs to be done.
