Hello to all,

Will you accept on this forum an inhabitant of the old world ?

I dare to hope so, and in the meantime I would like to introduce myself to you. First of all I apologize if I make some mistakes in English.

My name is Eric, I'm French (I know it's a bad start), I live in the south of France, where the weather is nice, and I own a 2007 Jaguar XKR.
I bought this car in 2017, it was not a new car but its history was clear.I did a lot of work on the engine, including redoing all the engine distribution mechanism, water pump, engine sealing.... everything has been checked.

It's a very good car, the quality of the leather is just extraordinary, it has a patina of age.

I will try to attach to this post some pictures.

I come on this forum because in France we are not numerous to own a Jaguar XKR and I am very interested in the experiments you share, the advices you exchange and the sincerity of the messages.

I am ready to help everyone, beyond the only Jaguar subject.

I hope I didn't make too many English mistakes in this post.

Good day to all, best regards, Eric

Thank you very much for your welcome message Graham, I hope to learn and contribute a lot for the other members.
in fact I don't have many problems with this vehicle anymore, the last one was on a water drain pipe of the air conditioning ... specific problem XKR 2007/2008!
I did read the "special new member" post.
Have a nice evening

Hello, Eric,
There is absolutely Nothing wrong with your English! It's better than that of many native English speakers we get in here.
Nice looking Jag you have there.

Welcome to the forums from ElinorB.

Default Big thanks

A big thank you to all of you for your welcome!

I didn't have time yesterday, beach day, but today I'm going to "dig a little" into the subjects... and in particular review my signature !
167 people to have read this unimportant post, I am impressed!

Bonjour Eric,
Welcome to the forum. I am also in the south of France; near to Carcassonne. I have an '07 LWB XJ.
My French is worse than your English!
Regards,
Clive
