Hello to you ninja,

Have you had a look through the S section.

 

Welcome to the forum...

 

Welcome to the forum

 

welcome to the site, good to have you here

I've manually upgraded you to full forum access so you can better view the site and all its features.

 

Thanks for the welcome everyone. And thanks Jim!

I'm enjoying the forum and hoping that I don't experience any of the horror stories.

My car is a 99 model with just 30000 miles on it. I paid £2500 GBP for it. The old guy I bought it off had unfortunately scraped the front left wing and had a bodge job done on it so I'm picking it up from the paint shop today. I hope she looks all pretty again.

Next job will be a full service at an independant Jaguar dealer. It has some knocking on the front nearside suspension, so I'll get them to look at the wishbones and bushes. As far as I know the car has never been serviced, apart from oil changes so it will need the aircon re-gassing and all the fluids changed.

It might cost a bit to get all of this done but with just 30000 miles on it I hope to be able to enjoy it for a good few years!

 

looks like a cracker.....and with a few bits n pieces hopefully you'll be good for a while.

Dunno if you use a spanner yourself here n there or not? If you do there's some great top tips on how to's for certain jobs that'll save you a real bundle

Good luck

 

Yeah, I tool about quite a bit with my bike. I just want to have a good service done first before I start tinkering!
