Re: sad days are coming

Reading into the government rules that came into affect from 3rd Jan. The zero emission vehicle (ZEV) mandate sets out the percentage of new zero emission cars and vans manufacturers will be required to produce each year. This year, 10% of vans and 22% of cars sold by manufacturers will need to be e...

Re: sad days are coming

I just don't see a 100k+ 2-seater electric sports car with 550-600bhp selling in big enough numbers to warrant the investment! Not when you can have a BYD Seal with 530bhp with every option for under £48k and 3 extra seats. Other than looks of course. Unless it's something special, 1000bhp or 600+ m...

Re: sad days are coming

Officially the end of the road. Final worldwide production numbers should be around 92,000 F-Types produced. Surprised there aren't some formal Jaguar communications about electric replacements rather than magazine renders etc. Look out for dealers wanting to shift new stock (and also older stock th...

Re: New to forum and would like advice please

My 2p. 1. Pano roof. From various searches, the majority of V6 and above have pano roof whereas the majority of 2L don't. I think it's one of those extras, if you never had it you won't miss it but once you've seen one with it, it becomes something you want. 2. Wheel size. I don't see any issues wit...

Re: History check please HY23 AYD

Car 85530. MY24 spec from 1st July 2023 (not a year old yet).

Registered to Harwoods Chichester and serviced early in January this year with 5k ISH miles.

Unsure who first owner was. Would have to check V5C and also get a Car Vertical check etc.

Re: Registering service history with JLR

Access to everything is £3191 a year.
Access to service information and OSH is £1461.

A big outlay for any small independent just for a subscription never mind tooling, diagnostics and devices.

Looks like JLR have changed email addresses a few times in the past year!

Re: Reg check pls

Sure. Will send on a private message shortly. A lot of sellers get the colour wrong because Land Rover and Jaguar used the same paint codes but call them different names. Although Hakuba silver is available on 2022 and onwards Land Rovers. Number of owners. There is the first owner. And then the sec...

Tyres appears on last MOT so check that and with any car always worth getting a full check. Car Vertical sponsor the forum for 10% off (or if you follow M...
