Thank you.

Think I'll leave it well alone.

How easy would it be to retro fit these to my Jaguar S-Typer 04 plate.

It's already got Auto headlights, so apart from the new Stalk what else would I need please ?

Thanks in advance

Doesn't look like I have the mic, so what parts do I need please and what should I expect to pay.  Thanks for the help.

no oem sat nav, will have a look in the morning for the mic.

Well I just found out that I have power folding mirrors one less retrofit to do.  But how would I be able to easily tell if mine as blue tooth fitted ?

Thanks

Brilliant thank you.

I would rather keep original equipment if possible, I have a list of things that I would like to retro fit as some point.  I really really like this car and want to keep it for well a very long time.  By that I mean until I can save up enough to buy an STR.

I'm more than happy with the 2.5ltr sport auto it's a brilliant relaxing car to drive.  At the moment if I want something quicker and more livelier I have a V6 MG ZS and that car goes like stink and holds the road brilliantly.  But I can't keep two V6's and I really really like the S Type always wanted one, well for at least 4 years and this one came along at the right price.  When purchasing the S type I knew I might be getting made redundant and I personally felt that turning up for job interviews or meeting clients the Jaguar would be the better car.

Unfortunately that Ideas on hold at the moment just got made redundant, so other things are more important at the moment I.E setting my own business up.  Worked for enough idiots in my 30yr working life.

Yes thank you that's the one I'm interested in.

Sorted going to buy the R Type one.  I intend on keeping the Jaguar for a long time, well until I can afford a STR.  So I just want to make it more personal to me without going to far from the OE look.

I do like the look of the S-Type in standard form don't get me wrong I personally think a small spoiler would split the back of the car up.  I know it will make no difference to the handling of the car, but I would like one from a look point of view.

Exactly I agree that's why I asked for pictures of spoilers fitted so I could make my own mind up, on whether it would or would not make the car more pleasing to my eye.  I personally don't like after market stickers on cars a personal choice but other people like them, however I wouldn't offer an opinion on them unless asked. 

Why Not?

If it's perfect why do some have spoilers fitted as standard?

I already have a track car which does the job much better than the S-type can and would.

Yes it's more for looks than anything else, but i asked for pictures of them fitted not opinions thank you.

Cockermouth, Cumbria.

Usually gains on non-turbo charged cars are small (in comparison to what you can get out of a turbo'd engine)

 

I would be suprised to see 20 BHP+ even with the panel filter, adding uprated exhaust and sports cat would see some gains as well but an expensive option.

 

Would be cheaper to look at swapping the car for a 3.0, extra 40 bhp out of the box ?

 

My guess would be that the remap would just improve 'driveability' improving throttle response and get rid of any flat spots ?

That's what I'm after to be honest.

Thanks I'll take a look.

My local remapper said they couldn't do anything for the V6 petrol (only 2.7 diesel and the supercharged V8) , but these guys appear to offer a 35bhp upgrade for the 2.5 (and a 20bhp for the 3.0), both at £299. From a selfish point of view I'd say go for it and let us know how you get on, this seems some quite cheap horses, and if it works, we can all consider it ;)

It's on my list of things I would like to do in the very near future.

More likely to get better results with a diesel, personally I'd save my money, just my tuppence worth

Not a Diesel fan, don't do the mileage to justify one.

All depends on who does the remap.

Looking at BHP UK

Has anyone remapped the 2.5ltr V6 Auto.  If so did you notice the difference?

Thanks

Hi, I'm new myself.  Welcome to the group.

I would like to fit a small boot spoiler to the S-Type, does anyone have an after market one fitted and pictures please.  Would like something similar to the Type R one.

Thanks

Interested in something like this one:-

Thank you, always wanted a Jaguar and decided why not this one came along and ticked all the boxes, would of preferred the 3ltr or 4.2ltr but that'll be the next Jaguar.  I won't change brand again, I just really enjoy the driving experience. 

A couple of pics of the Jaguar...
