Hi All,
anyone know if the F-type SVR has an engine cover.The reason i ask is that i have just had some warranty work and the technician asked where my engine cover was.
i said that's how the car was supplied (shows the aluminium top of the engine) so i'm not sure they put a cover on the SVR like they do the R model?
anyone know?
SVR Engine Cover?
Engine cover is not fitted to SVR's.

Yes just looking at images on line for the SVR and none of them had an engine cover fitted.
I had exactly the same. At it's 2nd annual service and the technicians had written that the engine cover was missing. I couldn't remember ever seeing one and said that it must have been missing from new - and they then told me SVR's don't have one. I then spent two weeks stewing over whether I was stupid or being lied to, and decided probably both. Perhaps this is a Jag technicians joke for the new boy - 'Go and find the engine cover for the SVR' - but I suspect it's just incompetence.

I just saw an SVR Cabriolet this weekend and it had a cover.
A Project 7 parked next to it however did not have a cover and the SVR cover was the same as all the other V8's

What age was the SVR? Maybe early models had them before a perceived issue with temperature was contemplated. Or the owner had one fitted?santoshlv426 wrote: ↑Mon May 20, 2019 8:13 am I just saw an SVR Cabriolet this weekend and it had a cover.

Could have been a late model - 2017 / 2018.
I doubt this guy had a cover fitted. He's more into fast cars in general rather than a "Jaguar Fan" In fact definately a lte model as the lights are LED and not Bi Xenon
It's this one, on the left

I got mine new 1st August 2016 - and I think it was one of the first SVRs? - it never had an engine cover! Nice weather for a convertible!
