Default Looking for XJ8 repair manual

I have the large pdf workshop manual on my other computer. My work had a cyber attack and my computer may have been connected to the network during the attack, Haven't turned it on since and waiting for IT to clear it.. I found the manual before on the forum. I had the version that included clickable links. Spent some time searching on forum but all the threads I found led to dead links. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Not on Jagrepair.com
Went to General Jaguar Forums General Tech Help Jaguar Forums File Download Area, Folder Index.
It was there. Be careful, my virus protection stopped 5 viruses.

Well, I have a XJ Workshop Manual MY 98 on, but it is 70MB, 2490 pages, but jaguarforums does not let me upload it, as it is too big...

That’s the one I found. There is a link to an off forum site. That’s where the viruses were.

I got it off the site with the viruses. The computer caught them on download and I rescanned the file before I opened it.

It didn't direct you to a Google drive link? I'll check when I get home, worst case I can re-upload some files and share them

I sent it out to a couple of members via email. Seemed to go well; but it is a big file -- 78megs outbound.

I can vouch for the fact that "it sent well" and downloaded successfully both to my older iPhone and my older laptop (neither of which is anywhere near as old as my Jags).

As noted in my reply to James, I now feel the need for a whole bunch of tools and diagnostics and a four post lift but I'm not getting anywhere with my bride of 51 years on that front despite his encouragement.
