Hi I'm Alwyn..just new to the forum but have been a menber of JEC for many years..the XK is my 5th Jag..have'nt got it on the road yet waiting to have the chains tensioners and water pump replaced..hope to have that complete this week..have only driven it a short distance but veeeery nice ..reminds me of my XJS which I had a number of years ago . Maybe start a new thread on this but I'm going to change the gearbox oil (75k at mo) as I do'nt believe in this sealed for life nonsense..have been told that you can use ordinary auto oil if you change it regularily..any thoughts?

Hello Alwyn... Guess who?!!

For everyone else, I am Damian. I have just bought my first Jag, a 2002 4.0 XK8, and I can't describe the feeling I get still looking at it or I may be censored on my first post!

It is an awesome car to drive, and so much more sleek than all the run of the mill beemers and mercs that everyone else goes for.

I'll start browsing these forums to learn all I can about the car now.. but I'll not dare and try any maintenance myself! :?

Still the standard exhaust. Have looked at the different options, but it's down the list of priorities at the moment. Yes it was a tad gloomy here today!
