Default Second time around

Lost my 94 XJS V12 in the great Texas hailstorm of 2016. Searched for 3 years now but didn't realize how rare it was. Finally settled for my new toy, 2010 XKR. Looking forward to lots of DIY help with this 500 horsepower "computer" so thanks in advance.

Welcome back Don,

Yes - you'll need a laptop more than you need the wrenches with the XKR!

I *HATE* it when that happens!

When I was a young and stupid senior in high school I borrowed my boyfriend's car one afternoon while he was at work (Ford dealership), a Really sleek Mercury, BLACK of course, and went to do errands.

While I was gone a Violent Montana hail storm laid waste to the entire town and several towns around and all cars in every car lot therein. Except my boyfriend's car which I had elsewhere at the time, and although the car got wet, no hail. He was Very glad I had it out of town.

Soon after that a client came into that very Ford dealership looking for a car, Any car without hail damage, and my boyfriend, smelling money, sold his car. For quite a lot of money it's true, but still he sold it.

Our relationship didn't last very long after that.
