Re: Auto wing mirrors.

I understand that you press both left and right mirror buttons at the same time.

Re: Locking wheel nut adaptor

Strange that this should come up today. I had to look for mine this evening (it was under a flap in the boot next to the battery) as I am getting a new tyre tomorrow. Would you believe that the previous owner kerbed the wheel, effected a reasonable repair to the wheel but has glued down a split in t...

Re: Can’t see Nav maps

Hi David did you find a solution to the sat nav issue, I have also bought a 2013 v8s just recently and I have the exact same problem. Regards paul. Sadly not, Paul, though I have to say I’m not really that worried at the moment and will likely install the Unique Auto CarPlay/Android Auto solution. ...

Re: Can’t see Nav maps

Is that the main vehicle battery or is there an auxiliary battery somewhere?

Can’t see Nav maps

I’ve just bought my f type (13 plate v8s) and the only problems seems to be the nav system has lost its maps. The previous owner had Apple CarPlay installed and, since I have android phones, he agreed to remove it to return the nav function. This seemed to work fine on the way home but then the map ...

Re: Hello from a potential new owner

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1n9v_hRlDfgBt3b8WnaQDvkDkvWBh0WOS/view Well, I did it! I decided I wouldn’t buy something till later in the year unless the right spec car came up and here it is! V8S with all the bits I wanted. I know it’s likely that I’ve bought at the height of the market but, as s...

Hello from a potential new owner

Hi all and thank you for accepting me. I’m in the market for an f-type convertible as a second, fun car. I have had a 1990s Lotus Elan Turbo for some years and fancy a change. Truth is, I’ve long since promised myself a V8 one day. Despite driving an electric car (and keen to encourage the take-up) ...
