Welcome to the forum Gary,
Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums. That's your weekend work list! Are you planning to get any sleep.![Icon Lol](https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/images/smilies/icon_lol.gif)
Follow this link XK8 / XKR - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to the XK8/XKR forum for help, advice and information. The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for info on regular issues. I know you've already found the RealGauge Prize draw so no need for a link.
You can also visit the UK Region forum by following this link UK - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to find other members in this country.
Enjoy the forums.
Graham
