New (to me) 2008 XJ Vanden Plas
I recently aquired my 2008 XJ, a naturally aspirated 4.2 V8. It is a long wheel base version with the rear entertainment system and 45,000 miles. I decided to give up my Vette for luxury, and the Jag surpassed everything I have seen from Benz, BMW or Audi. I live in NorthEast Ohio, East of Cleveland in the snowbelt. Fortunately, I have a 4 wheel drive for winter use.
I learned a lot from the Vette Forums, and I am sure I will learn a lot here. I am already on the hunt for an owners manual and an additional key and fob. Any ideas on this will be a help. Thanks to all!

Welcome to the forum daddywags,
Good to have you with us.
Check the tech section XJ ( X350 & X358 ) XJ6 / XJ8 / XJR - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum "How To's" for manual download details, ebay is probably the best place for a fob, the programming will likely be a specialist job.
Don't neglect your regional area Mid West US - IL IN IA MI MN MO OH WI - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum
Enjoy the forum.
If you haven't done so already you should add your car details to your signature to help others to help you.

Hi Daddywags:
Welcome to the forum and greetings from the Midwest Region. Welcome also to Jaguar ownership. As you already know from your Corvette experience, finding community support is helpful in maintaining these cars and keeping morale high when problems invariably come along.
Enjoy the new drive and welcome aboard!
cheers,
Scott

Welcome to the forum daddywags,
Follow Norri's link to the X351 section for help, advice and information. You won't be able to download the Handbook (owner's manual) from there until you've got 3 Days membership and a minimum of 10 Posts so here's the direct link to the file on my MediaFire account - a free download directly from there:
http://www.mediafire.com/download/4g...avn5/US+40.pdf
Note if you have a slow speed internet link -the file is 13mB.
Enjoy the forum.
