Smile New Member From South Africa

Hi guys just picked up an auto, black (with cream interior) 2005 Jag X-type. Runs like a dream, paintwork needs some attention but all in all a great car.

The guy I bought it from had the engine bay cleaned and the plug wells got filled with water and as you can guess the car threw a disco of error lights and drove like crap. However I jumped online, found this forum and had the intake off, plugs changed and wells etc dried in about 30mins.

I look forward to reading alot more into these vehicles and meeting other owners.

Thanks for the great forum and hello from South Africa
