Re: sold the car

likely thats the legal position but I have repeated what they said just to illustrate the level of support that Jaguar give. Likely " customer service" is a call centre in Wigan employing minimum wage types.

Re: seat comfort

My seats on the factory build sheet are described as 14 way electric seats. No mention of "performance" or "sports". I guess they are the standard seats. Interestingly I called in our local useless dealer and had a look at the new cars in stock. The standard seat on current model...

Re: uncomfortable seats.

thanks for the reply. mine are described on the build sheet as 14 way, and the control you highlight only seems to affect the side bolsters to the backrest not the seat squab. Its the squab that the problem.

I am of average size, maybe...

Re: Is the F-Type a great racer?
