Hi roadracer,
Can you tell us what is wrong with your current cable, just to add the problem to our knowledge base?
My first idea would be to purchase a good salvaged cable. eBay is a good place to find sellers who are parting out similar cars. If they don't have the cable listed on eBay, use eBay's messaging system to contact the seller and inquire.
Another possibility would be to make your own replacement using a cable kit from a racing supply like Summit Racing. Go to summitracing.com and search Throttle Cables to see the kinds of kits I'm talking about.
Regarding your signature and photo, there's no telling what went wrong, but please try again to add your signature. Hover your cursor over your username in the upper right corner of this page (lower right corner of the blue banner). In the dropdown menu, click the first option, User CP.
In your Control Panel, click on Edit Signature in the left column of options. Scroll down to the Edit Signature window and add your car info. Then be sure to scroll down further and click Save Signature. The info should then show up on all your posts.
Cheers,
Don

I'm in the middle of replacing the gear cable on my 2000 XJR. I can confirm that the XJ8 and XJR cables are different and not interchangeable.
Try
SNG Barratt - The Ultimate Jaguar Parts Specialist $281.13
Cheaper than it is in the UK (£220 ish)

over, about 10 minutes from me... I rather buy a new one than get a used one that might be stretched...
