    Start/Stop Button

    I have a bronze start/stop button but the bronze is wearing off. Can you buy a sticker/transfer or new cap to replace it or do I need to buy a whole new start/stop button? Where is the best place to buy? Thanks Michael

    Workshop Manual

    I was wondering if there is a workshop manual for the F Type? I know Haynes don't do one, I doubt there would be enough demand to justify the cost. I would like to be able to do some of the jobs on my car myself & would like to know I am doing it correctly. Thanks

    BDE Colchester

    I want to buy a F Type and am trying to decide on spec. I like the British Design Edition in Ultra Blue but have only seen it in pictures. There aren't any dealers close to me that have one and was wondering if anybody near Colchester in Essex has one I could have a look at Thanks Michael
