How long have I had a Jaguar XK8?
Had XK8 for 5 years, toured to The Algarve from Uk over two week period, and never missed a beat. Drew lots of admiring looks, and will always remember cruising through Vilamoura with the top down. The car could pick it’s feet up and with a specialist exhaust made by Swallow garages, most heard the V8 rumble before seeing the car.
What’s the difference between the XKR and the XK8?
The big differentiator between the XK8 and XKR, though, was the chassis. While both models were fine to drive, the ‘R’ was much more of a sports car and the XK8 a grand tourer. The more powerful car was sharper, more agile and altogether firmer, giving it a distinctly different character despite its discrete outward appearance.
What was the name of the Jaguar XJ in 1995?
Two immediate plans were hatched – to create a new XJ saloon, which became the 1995 X300 (and, two years later, evolved into the V8-engined X308), and to launch an entirely new sports car as a replacement for the stately dinosaur that was the XJ-S.
What was the name of the new Jaguar?
The new model, which was given the name XK8, was instantly popular – its proportions were butch and beefy but retained the grace and elegance for which Jaguars were traditionally well regarded.
Why does my Jeep not start in Park?
So went down to get a burrito, everything fine. Came back out to start it, nothing. The jeeps shifter is in park but will roll forward and back so it must not be in park. Everything works as far as electrical and I’m not throwing codes.
Why is my shift lever stuck in Park?
Ford trucks are bad about play in the shift linkage on top of the column you may not notice so much in the lever, a pair of black plastic bushings on the long rod get sloppy. Cost me $14 for a pair at Ford. Also some adjustment in the arm that swings / connects to the long shift rod.
