G'day. I'm Adrian from Victoria, Australia. Back in the early '80s I had a Series 1 XJ6, so I thought that, having now retired, I'd step back into Jag ownership. Being a bit of a Midsomer Murders watcher, I got a bit of a man crush on the X Type. So in December 2019, I purchased a very tidy 2001 3litre X Type, with reasonable klms for it's age but a full and detailed service history.
It had a few glitches, and some cosmetic fixing to do, but it gave me something to do in the longest Covid lockdown region on the planet.
I have been stalking this group for information for a long time now, so I thought it was about time to introduce myself.
As I said, I have a couple of nagging problems to fix, but I will deal with those as time goes on and look forward to your advice.




Cheers for now.

Welcome to the forums Adrian,

Good to have you with us.

It sound like you've already found the relevant model forum but if not, follow this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x-type-x400-14/ to the X-Type forum for help, advice and information. The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information on regular issues. You can also use the Australia - Victoria / Tasmania Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/a...a-tasmania-94/ to find other members in your region.

Please read the guidance for new members ( https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/n...ned-up-241802/ ) which answers many of the most frequent questions about getting started.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham

We have to make allowances for the old farts.

Thanks for that...I'm still getting my head around replying and whether the reply is going to the correct spot.
