Hi there everyone,been looking for a forum like this for a while and stumbled across it,as it is in the title i am addicted to v8 and glad i have found a forum to share a chat with like minded people.
My name is jay and i come from west lothian scotland.
I am 32 and work for vw/audi as a vehicle technician.
I first got a taste for v8,s when my workshop foreman took me out for a spin in his tvr griffith 500,what a noise and i was instantly hooked on the power and noise from a v8.

My first v8 purchase.
Audi a6 4.2 v8.

Had a v6 and a straight 6 motor after that which i knew was a mistake,so back to v8.
Discovery 2 4.0 v8

Image

Image

Image

Then on to my current car.
Jaguar xjr 4.0 supercharged v8.

Hope u all like my past and present cars and i hope to speak to some of you guys soon.
Cheers jay.

Hi Jay
Welcome to the forum.
Good place to ask all your questions and have them answered, some really clever guys on here.
I might need to talk to you regarding a VW Transporter in the very near future as am planning to buy one as a works van.
Your cars and particularly the current ride do it for me.

Again welcome

Cheers
Paul
