Hello Everyone, I'm a nurse, parent, gardener, amateur arborist, and car guy living in Seattle, US. I recently bought a 2002 XK8 convertible (47k miles) after a few months of research. It seems that these cars require some maintenance/care and I wasn't sure that I had the skills and I surely don't have the money. I'm grateful these forums exist as a resource to Jag enthusiasts!

Hello, Eric,
Congratulations on your First Jaguar!
Caring for all those little maintenance thingys is part of the Bonding process. Jaguars need to Bond with their owners to be truly happy cars.
The happier the car, the better it performs, in all criteria.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it!

Welcome to the forums from ElinorB.
