Hiy Jon. I'm Jon as well !!
I've just purchased a 4.2 xk 2006 model and I'm really pleased, I looked at and researched whether to get the earlier model or the one I've got . I think the engine is better, the body styling is better and it's got more gadgets inside ( also more to go wrong ) !! I've gone from owning 7 land rover Discovery's in a row to the Jag so it's a completely different type of vehicle, must be my middle aged life crisis !!
I live in South Wales and I've had it looked at by my local independent garage Gimbers, much better than main stealers ! All in all a great car ! Happy hunting . Cheers Jon

Well done , I bought my xk 4.2 in July ,again had plenty of little trips with the roof down .
I've had no problems with mine apart from a squeal from the fan/belt, but this goes as soon as it's warmed up ! And when I took it for a free pre mot check I needed the two front flexy brake hoses changed as they had rusted and would fail next years mot,( I had them done in my local garage and it was only £150 for the two , inc fitting )
I've got 51,000 miles on mine and one owner before me ! It's an 06 plated vehicle .
It's kept in a warm dry garage and only used very infrequently at the moment, but I do give it a wipe over with a dry cloth most days and I dream of another hot summer next year !
Happy Jag ownership .
Cheers
