Goodday people with taste!
I searched for an introduction part on this forum but didn`t find one so here I am.
Alexander Hamm 40 years of age and Volvo lover. I still own a C70 covertible and a Volvo S80 T6, but I was in desperate need of a Smart V8. I didn`t want to dump my T6 in a trade for a S80 V8 and had a life long dream of owning the last real bloodline of the E-type. Therefore I chose the XKR. Fianally I found me a wonderfull car with complete history in pretty good order. Next maintenance should be in 2000 km, but I started immediately. Yes... the squeeking belt horror,sparcplugs oil etc.. But What a wonderfull automobile it is. I love it. Didn`t drive my T6 since I bought the XKR.

When possible I`ll try to give usefull feedback.
Any other Dutch people here?

Wow lovely car, colour and interior. Love the dash, great grain on the wood. Each walnut dash is unique cut from the same single piece of wood veneered over the 3 panels. The grain and knots will always match across the dashboard if its original. You have a great looking car there. Love the wheels too. Welcome to the forum

Welcome aboard! And absolutely the best color! (and by the way, after having 3 Volvos in the mid-1980's, I swore, "NEVER AGAIN!" If you think Jaguars are labor intensive, you've never owned a Volvo, the three worst automobiles we ever owned, 244GL, 740, 740 Turbo)
Enjoy that beautiful looking coupe.
