Another shocking example of poor quality control. I am due to pick up my car on the 1st March. Door and panel alignment is the first item on my check list. I am prepared to reject at point of sale and walk away. Will keep you all up dated. Phil.

Even my partners dads I20 Hyundai has very good panel fit .. I really do wonder at times with Jaguar, and this is exactly the reason we have held off buying another Jaguar .. we was thinking of buying a E Pace but for now permanently on hold .. so one lost sale
Have an Epace being delivered on 10 March
Hoping this is specific build issu s to the F type but expect we’ll have some teething issues. Leasing though given it’s diesel, new model and unknown entity for values, etc. Lease was cheap as chips :)

Please update with any fix for passenger door misalignment issue. Dealer has been unsuccessful in attempts to resolve issue with my 2017 F-Type R. When temps drop below 20 degrees F (-7 degrees C) problem is extreme and door will not latch closed without a hard lift up and forceful push in. Thanks.

That's terrible gmoore, I'll certainly update. Actually, it's in for a couple of other issues also, one being the heated steering wheel doesn't function as it should and also the under wheel arch protection material has pulled away in a few places. Noticed this when running hand under wheel arch to make sure properly clean.

Hello

But I would like to add that my panel gaps on my F Type are fine ... also since I have had my example delivered last May 2017 no tech issues as all

(touch wood as I said that)

so a positive ..
