Re: Jaguar Free 7 day Insurance

Hi They wouldn't do it for me as my 19MY P300 did not have the Jag tracker fitted, irrespective of having all the latest In-Control tech to track the cars location!

Re: Incontrol issues

Had a similar problem when I first got my car.

Dealer provided a replacement SIM and we did everything from the car and its wifi hot spot.

Tyre pressures naturally drop in cold weather, I think the ratio is for e...

Re: Exhaust Note

If you boot it from about 40mph you'll hear it! Doesn't sound bad for a 2L four pot.

On idle and at at low revs, nothing to write home about but even the V6 & V8 are being quietened due to new regs.
