Re: Switchable Exhaust Operation ?

What's the reg and I'll have a look. You have to check TopiX (Jaguar system). The original 2015 R's were recorded at 84db drive by noise. The max limit for drive by noise was reduced in 2016 to 72db for cars made after 2017. F-Types were recorded at 74db in 2017 prompting for Jaguar Campaign H239 of...

Re: Switchable Exhaust Operation ?

Sounds about right. My start procedure is, dynamic mode on, auto start/stop off, start car, leave to high idle until revs drop, wonder how many people I just woke up, select gear and off we go, nice and gentle until warmed up, then enjoy. EDIT: MY18 will depend on which of the three H239 updates are...

Re: Cost V’s mileage

Lots of variables there!! Taking KN72 VML as an example. The car with 11,000 miles would be around £1,850 cheaper (+/- £300) than the same car with 2000 miles. Based on autotrader data. But it various greatly on year, model, age, location, demand. Plus there are never two exactly the same to make a...

Re: Traffic Sign Recognition and Adaptive Speed Limite

Our other car also has this issue. There is a road that is 40mph that changes to a 30mph for a long left hand corner as you enter a built up area but on the right hand side is an entry to an industrial estate with a sign post that says 5mph. The car picks up the 5mph sign as you turn the corner unti...

Re: Hi There - From Potential 'R' Owner In Lincolnshire!

Hi and welcome. The one with the lime green exterior trim is a bit much. Note this is not a registered dealership but someone working from home. They don't have a website and only trade via autotrader. Some of the other cars for sale also don't have a history check. Loads of photos but none of the d...
