I have had factory fitted tints on all of my previous cars including my Mercedes ML, Range Rover and M3 and I have to say not once has it hindered my view (I only get a light tint tho) the XF is the only car I have owned that hasn't had them from factory.

All the tints have been very durable, and as they are relatively cheap they are easy to replace if damaged, I have them done from a company near me and it costs around £180 taking approximately 1/2 a day.

Thanks Trevor I will do that, I really appreciate your advice.

Hi Trevor,

Thanks for your response, Im slowly bringing the other half round to the decision, I think she is finally beginning to like them.

I'm really interested in your answer, do you know of any good quality tuners who should do a bespoke remap and rolling road print out as I don't just want a plug and play job.

I have just got off the phone with Paramount Performance and they said they could get an extra 50 bhp and 70 nm/torque which sounds nice. Only downside is they need my ecu for a couple of days.

Thank you for your warm welcome, I hopefully will make some good friends along the way.

Morning Jag owners.

Just a quick introduction and to say hi as I am a new forum member.

I have just recently purchased my first Jag, to the shock and horror of my wife, she has stated I am to young (27) but I had to quickly dispel that myth and advise her she was Ill educated in the matter.

Having finally broken away from the hold Mercedes had on me, I took delivery of my new car and I have to say it is sublime. Why I didn't buy one sooner I will never know.

A little about the car..... Well, I decided I wanted something slightly different so I have chosen the following:

Jaguar XF 3.0 in a colour called Caviar... Wow what a colour in the light

Full black pack including Grill

20" Hydra Alloy Wheels in Gun Metal Grey

Very lightly tinted rear windows.

I will post pictures as soon as I have given her the 2nd polish in the last 12 days and the weather pics up, she is slightly dusty as I have just got back from Offshore so is getting the treatment today.

The question I have is, does anybody have any experience with remaps for the XF and if so who are the best, I don't want a plug and play box as I believe they just plays tricks with the ECU so was looking for a professional, progressive remap set up on a rolling road. I appreciate the XF is a quick car but was after that little bit more torque.

Hi Shep,

I had the same dilemma when I picked up my new car last week, I have a XF in a colour called Caviar and it looks superb with the rear windows done, I have only had them done extremely light as I didn't want to go for the over modified look, it looks very discreet and just gives it a slightly more aggressive appeal.

I will post a picture when I get back as I am currently Offshore
