Wow! Birthday, Retirement, F Type and some
dealer freebies too. Hope you ran out and got yourself a lottery ticket whilst luck was running your way. Enjoy - no need to ask how you will send your new found free time.

I've never understood why people think that having used up a lot of luck, you'll get even more .... :?

I’ve always thought that if you are getting free gifts, flowers for the wife, champagne etc. you’ve paid too much for your vehicle :lol:

And with you now being a pensioner and all!!!! I’m sure you don’t give two hoots. Enjoy your retirement and the car. My wife retires in about two weeks at the not so ripe old age of 55 and I’m trying to convince her she needs an F-Type as a retirement treat ( current non owner here).

I don't know if they have changed the design of the dust caps but earlier ones had a metal internal thread.
Cue galvanic corrosion and tyre fitters having to use the mole grips or in worse case scenario having to chop off the valve stems.
If they are metal then a smear of silicone grease or the like on the valve threads will mean they will come off ok in the future.

On checking the dust caps, those pesky little Jaguar engineers have put some red jollop inside to stop the act of nature taking its toll 👊👊👍👍

Very nice too, always worth having the dealer onside.

The devil's in the detail - Did the dealer line the Union Flag centre cap perpendicular to the valve stem position? ;)

Some members may also want to know about your nut alignment :shock:

Looks great Enjoy!, It's nice a few simple things can make the experience so much more special, shame all dealers don't understand this.
