Re: Awd r vs svr

I’m in the process of making this very decision. Just my opinion so feel free to take it or leave it: From everything I’ve read, it’s not worth it. There’s not £20k worth of difference between the R and SVR in a lot of peoples opinions including mine from what I’ve researched. Certainly not enough d...

Re: Independent Garage South Coast

I wouldn’t take my Jag to cedar garage. Have used them for my Volvo. Overfilled the car twice after a basic service and claimed to be ‘experts’. They’re extremely good at advertising though which is why they’re popular and have a good reputation. Not a bad garage at all, but not for your Jag.

How do you clean your cloth/suede seats?

Hi all

I need to clean the seats in my F-Type. As they’re not a standard material, I’m wondering if there’s something specific I should be using? Thanks in advance!

Re: V8 Noise - Pre and post GPF

Thanks scm. I guess the simple question would be whether the MY19 550 models are quiet below 3,000rpm. I heard a 2016 R pass me the other day and it sounded amazing even at a low rev range. I hope that isn't gone once the GPF is in but I imagine it is...

V8 Noise - Pre and post GPF

Hi all As discussed many times, the newer V8 F-Types are muted compared to the originals. However what I'm wondering is how much of an audible difference there is. Specifically between the MY18 and MY19 550 models. Has anyone every compared a 2018 F-Type (pre GPF) and say a 2019 F-Type (post GPF). I...

O Reg Cars

Hi all Should I avoid looking at O reg cars? I was doing some research on here and came across an explanation about O reg cars and how they are usually corporate cars. So I went back and looked at the V8 cars on the Approved Jaguar webiste, and realised that pretty much all of them are O reg cars. I...

Petrol Particulate Filter

Hi all I'm just wondering when they toned down the exhausts on the F-Type. I have a MY20 (19 plate) V6 and it's definitely quieter than the older models I've heard. I'm looking at a 18 plate V8 and I'm hoping it's just before the filters came in but new enough for the Apple Car Play I have in my 19 ...

Re: Watch your speed!

The sad reality is that you can buy your way out of these situations. My brother was caught on his motorbike driving appallingly and was facing serious charges and a lengthy ban. He paid £8k for one of the best barristers around, ’Mr Loophole’, to escape the worst of it (peanuts compared to the sala...

KDS Keltic plus GTechniq Ceramic Coating

Been meaning to share this for a while. Cannot begin to tell you great KDS Keltic in Kent are. I had no idea that a car could look this good. It's astonishing and the pictures and video don't even begin to do it justice. Here is a short video after it was done (try and watch in full 1080p for qualit...
