Hey everybody.. first off let me start by introducing myself. My name's Charlie, I'm 18, I'm a new jaguar owner & a new car owner altogether. Sound like a recipe for catastrophe? As I write this introduction, I've had my Jaguar for 3 days, and I'm already kind of overwhelmed. I hear these cars are pretty solid so I'm hoping for the best, but right now it's not looking too good. Might have bought the car without knowing of a possible timing chain tensioner problem. Aside from that, I'm very excited to be apart of the Jaguar family and I'm hoping to meet some enthusiasts to learn from. I've attached some pictures of my 01 XJR for you guys to look at, nothing crazy just a nice british racing green/tan combo with some stock rims (which look great in my opinion)

Also, if there's anyone reading this from the DMV or nearby be sure to leave a reply!

 

Hello, Charlie,
Boy Howdy, if I had a Jaguar at 18, well, who can say.
Nice car! Congratulations!

A Jag for your first car. It's gonna ruin ya for all other cars. Just a word to the wise.

Welcome to the forum Charlie,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

That looks like an Ivory interior - Jaguar Tan is darker and more yellow. The manufacturer's label on the door pillar will confirm the Paint and Trim codes.

I can see you've already found your way to the X308 forum so there's no need for a link to it from me. The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information on regular issues.

Welcome.

Well done on the choice of 1st car.

I did the same in 1968 with a MK7 Jaguar, and yes, got ruined for any other brand.

Congratulations.

 

welcome to the forum - enjoy!!!

Welcome to the forums, you wouldn't believe how many people think I own an 01 XJR!.
I did, but it was a motorcycle.
