48month service costs

Morning,

My V8R needs a 64,000 mile service ( 4 years).

It is on jaguar warranty so I'll be using my dealer and I'm currently waiting to hear back for costs etc.

Has anyone had this service recently? If so can I ask what you paid please?

Many thanks

D

Re: Furlough payments?

I'm an employer and furloughing some people. We have to pay them as normal (or at 80% or £2500) and then claim the cash back.

Re: Time to wake up or not

Mine is getting out a couple of times a week. I need to pop into the office to check servers at least once a week and then there is the essential supplies thing.

Re: Meridian System Poor

I'd also say that the Meridian is not the best quality kit - not for the money I paid for it anyway. I agree that the sound of the car itself is one of the main reasons I bought it, but if I'm driving 12-14 hours to southern Germany like I do on occasion then I do sometimes want to listen to music!...

Re: Meridian System Poor

I thought I'd step in here as I know the Meridian folks quite well. The Ftype is a fantastic car, but the packaging is very tight. I have the basic Meridian System in mine, it's fine, certainly better than HK systems I've had in BMW's or the Bose system that was in our Porsche. I think that there ar...

Re: Jaguar F-Type differential failures - Input needed.

Mine had a weeping diff, the dealer flagged it at the first mot. This was corrected under warranty. Since then (12k miles) it has been weep free however there is a mild clunk sometimes when going onto the power when turning. Nothing dramatic but I'll get them to look at it/change the diff oil a the ...

Re: 2017 Type R 1st MOT

That insurance seems steep. Mine is under £500, fully comp, business usage 10k miles per year.
I could have got it cheaper form LV but needed to go with admiral as we have three cars and the overall figure was lower with them.
