Hello group,
I'm giving serious thought to selling/trading my '91 XJ-S "Collection Classic" and picking up an XK8. I'd originally thought I'd like a '97 or '98, but I've been told there were some problems with the Nikosil linings, especially on cars used primarily for "multiple, short journeys"...
My questions for the collective wisdom of the group:
1) FIRST off, is that true about the Nikosil? How much of a problem IS it?2) I was also told that, starting in 2000, the cylinder linings were replaced with cast-iron. However, the local dealer says that HIS
2000 is Nikosil. DID they change? What model year or build dates would be cast iron?3) Anyone interested in a '91 XJ-S?? :-)
Thanks...
