Hello from Buffalo NY. I just purchased a 2003 XK8 convertible/British racing green and can't wait to get it. Also can't wait for the snow to melt and the roads to clear as I'm not driving it in the salt. I purchased it in Atlanta and will have it delivered next week. I own a 38 Sea Ray Sundancer and belong to the Club Sea Ray forum.This forum as well as there's is the best place to share stories or problems with either the cars or the Boats. I look forward to doing a lot of reading up on these cars. Up until a week ago I was looking to buy a BMW Z4 for my summer fun. A friend of mine said do yourself a favor and don't buy a chick car go look at the XK8 and let me know what you think. I bought 1 the next day.

Welcome. I'm also a newbie to this forum. I've had a couple old Jag's for a couple years now. Still lots to learn however.

You have a sweet ride on the way! I love the XK styling. Enjoy.

CJ, welcome to the forums. You will find lots of good information around these parts. Enjoy your time here and partake of the fun. I'm going to be up in your area here in about 2 months working up at a power plant outside of Rochester. I'm looking at running through Buffalo on my way home to see the falls (some time late May). Lets see what happens.

Until then, spend some time in the XK forums and anywhere else you want and have fun.

Welcome to the forum Chuck,

You should buy your mate a beer for saving you from the Z4!

Welcome to the forum!

Oh one other thing you need to put your car details in your signature. I am speaking of the Year, Make & Model. Without it you may not get the input you are looking for.

Please take a moment and read the information provided to you explaining the rules.

Be patient and enjoy the site.

A VERY large beer. Welcome, I actually uncovered my TVR today to look at her. Hoping for a warm up in the next couple weeks so she can get some sun. Of course I road the bike to work this am.

Thanks everyone and yes it will be a very large beer to my friend.Also the first thing I should probably do is get the kit ordered for the top pump and reduce the pressure so I at least start off with this car on a good note.
