Sorry for delay, I’ve been stacked with work!

I’m based in Holmfirth. I’ve got the car going into Jag dealer for a service in a couple of weeks, then I’ll be looking for the detail later in May ready for spring/summer!

I’m also keen to hear thoughts on any independent garages recommended in the area, I’ve got real mixed reviews from my local jag and it seems to be the luck of who you get, rather than a consistent experience from a great indie. Perhaps another thread, or I’ll search through these great forums.

Gave it a wash at the weekend, a couple more pics for those asking.

As a guide, if I put my car into used.jaguar.co.uk as part of a trade in, the used price they will offer me drops by £600 if I say I only have 1 key.

Up to you what you do. My opinion would be:
If your keeping it and/or have the InControl Remote feature (so you can open the car from your phone) and/or your good at not losing things or keeping the car anyway then perhaps live with one key, you have so far.

If your going to sell it/trade it in the future then you'll get the majority of the investment back as a higher resale value so you could do it now.

Is it possible to upgrade to InControl? Out of curiosity, that might make a lot more sense?

I don't know whether your car, number 17340, was originally spec'ed with InControl features or not or whether it was continued after the first 3 years lapsed.

That would be one for Jaguar dealer or customer care team to advise.

Thanks anyway for the response mate!

As far as I know, Incontrol Secure and Incontrol Remote are independent of each other. When I bought my car (MY16) I downloaded the Jaguar Remote app to my phone and, with a bit of help from my local dealer pairing me as the new owner on Jaguar's system and having paid the annual InControl Remote subscription, I can now lock/unlock or start the car from my phone.

In other words, I don't think a prior subscription to Incontrol is necessary to get it up and running as a new owner.

Hope this helps with your key dilemma!

Thanks! Maybe a conversation for the dealership when I take her down for the service in a couple of weeks.
