self introduction

[Kok-Meng.Lue@ubs.com]

     Hello Jag-lovers.
     I would like to introduce myself since I just joined this email list.
     
     My name is Lue, I was born and raised in Singapore, went to university 
     and graduate school in the United States and I now work in Japan as a 
     quantitative analyst designing trading strategies for a securities 
     company.  My background is aircraft/spacecraft propulsion unit design. 
      It's a long story how I got involved with two different fields but I 
     like them both!
     
     I've been following the introduction of the XK8 pretty closely and I 
     am thinking of getting one for myself.  I read the book by Phillip 
     Porter "Jaguar XK8 - The authorized autobiography" which talks about 
     the design process of the XK8.  It was an eye opening experience as 
     the book covers a lot of details about how Jaguar, under the new 
     management of Ford, proposed and design the new car to replace the 
     XJS.  I enjoyed the book tremendously and I got a much better picture 
     how Jaguar designed the XK8.  I was very impressed with the kind of 
     details they got themselves involved to make a better product.
     
     I just wanted to find out if anyone in this group have owned and 
     driven the XK8 since its introduction.  Does the XK8 has any problems 
     which I should be aware of.  From Phillip Porters book, I know that 
     Jaguar has solved a lot of problems previous Jaguars were known for.  
     I wonder if there are anything that I may have missed.
     
     Thank you.
     
     Lue
