Cigarette lighter and power socket
Just a tip from an electrical engineer, 75% of electrical faults on cars will be down to earthing.

17 vs 18 vs 19 vs 20 inch wheels for X-Type
What would be the offset changing from 20" to 18" on a XKR? I detest the BBS wheels and the method of checking tyre pressures.

Outdoor car cover
I have a cover which is supposed to be designed for the XKR, mine is a 2002 convertible and the cover has never come out of the boot due to the fact I have a large garage. PM if interested

Sincere Apologies
Have not been around the forum for some time, was taken into intensive care 2nd Jan until moved to a ward last Friday which had limited internet. Got out of hospital yesterday, still with an hole in my neck and limited movement after lying in a bed for 6 and a half weeks. Glad to be back but don't want to use the XKR with all the salt on the road so will use the CLK until weather improves, trickle charger fitted today.

Castrol Magnatec
If I'm honest Peter I watch the supermarkets, I've had it in Tesco for as little as £14.50 for 4ltrs and my old SL used to swallow 12ltrs into the sump

Hi folks, S Type wont start??
I think we would all be clutching at straws to give you an educated, qualified answer on that one Sam. I personally believe its a stealership or Independent good garage with trained technicians who regularly see this type of idle that will resolve your issue. Lets not forget a decent independent does not necessary have to be Jaguar trained.

the best thing about your jag
The sound of the XKR V8 4ltr Supercharged Engine, Colour; Light Blue with Cream Leather however, disappointment comes with the outdated Jaguar Standard Sterio System, although there is a CD Stacker in the boot the cabin holds a radio cassette with no USB hub.

Hopefully, depends when in May it falls. Our anniversary is in May and we always go away for a week during that period

Hi folks, S Type wont start??
They are so different to those of the Lambo and I would agree with you 100% there however these were nothing like it

Hi folks, S Type wont start??
I don't mind the doors Trevor, like yourself I thought exactly the same until I was in Mercedes Swansea where there was a SLR in the showroom and the salesman asked me if I wanted to sit in. It was not restrictive like I thought it would be.

Car Window Tinting
I had it done in the rear window of y 911 many years ago and believe you me night time driving is sooooooooo restrictive. Just not worth it, like Trevor have stated "Don't Know how its allowed". I wouldd never have it done again.
-
Hi folks, S Type wont start??
At least you can say you had one or two of them and never again Trevor. I'm still in the I want one mode but there again I also want a SLR or SLS
-
Hi folks, S Type wont start??
Happy that its all worked out for you. Just goes to show it is sometimes the simplest of things that you can loose sleep over. That is of course different with Trevor having spent a fortune of two 4 year old Aston Martins that were not fit for purpose.

Old x type, new member
Browd got the 3ltr F type sport which is a lot quicker tan the standard 3ltr. That new AMG, GT really does look the business though I will be well jealous of you buddy and you may get a visitor at Ilfracombe :D

Old x type, new member
My brother recently purchased a brand new F type Trevor, he opted for the 3ltr sport version with twin superchargers, he did not see any reasoning behind stepping up for the 5ltr when the performance on this is well capable of losing him his licence. He's chuffed to bits with it and I'm envious
