Welcome to the forum Gkleppy,

Congratulations on the XKR.

Sounds like you probably already know the way to the tech section but if not, follow this link XK8 / XKR - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to the XK8/XKR section for help, advice and information. The 'HOW TO' thread at the top there is a good place to start for info on regular issues.

Remember to add vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. Go to the User CP button on the left of the top menu bar, then Settings & Options under Your Control Panel. Select Edit Signature and enter the details.

You may also like to visit the US Mid West Region section by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/mid-west-us-il-ia-mi-mn-mo-oh-wi-39/ to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forum.

Graham

Hey,

I live in Wake Forest, NC. I just bought a 1997 Jaguar XK8 convertible. 46K original miles, one owner, garage kept. Always wanted one, never thought I would own one. I have been reading this forum for weeks and I got to be honest, you guys have saved me thousands of dollars in the great info and people in this forum.

Days after buying mine, it was in the shop, owning for 6 weeks and it was in the shop for 5 weeks. One throttle body later it runs great! Now I need many small parts and need to know where the best place to buy used parts is.

Thanks guys and I look forward to sharing my experiences in hopes of helping someone else.
