    Blown Speaker?

    I know that the sound system is not the reason for buying an F Type but I'm starting to get really annoyed by the cracking/distortion that I get when I play anything with a decent amount of bass, but this only happens on the driver's side. Could this be a blown speaker in the door? Also, if it...

    Coolant Level Low

    The coolant level low warning came on this morning so had a boring drive to work in the 5 series estate instead :( Was only serviced about 200 miles ago so does not sound like a reasonable loss of water so planning on poking around to look for obvious leaks when I get home, where are the...

    In the garage at last

    After spending a ridiculous amount converting 2 up and over doors into a single roller she is at last indoors 😀. But it sure is tight. About 8 inches space front and back. Anyone have any suggestions on padding to put on the back wall to prevent tears?

    Which Jaguar Warranty

    Do most people here go for the standard or select extended warranty? As far as I can see the only difference is the 3k claim limit with the select warranty Apart from the obvious of major engine work, what other issues could be more than 3k? Has anyone had a replacement engine under warranty...

    Bonnet paint repair

    Local wildlife seems to have damaged an inch diameter circularise patch of the paint. Definitely looks like claw marks ☹️. Is the only option a complete respray or is there any chance a smart repair might work. If it has to be the restoration, any idea of the cost? Pennies are a little tight...

    About to put a personalised number plate on but when taking the rear plate off I found stupid amounts of double sided tape that I really want to remove before putting the new plate on. I've tries the usual recommendation of patiently rubbing and rolling with your finger tip but its getting...

    Garage dimensions

    How long are your garages? I want to convert my double door to a single rollover so that she can live in comfort 😀. But if my measurements seem to indicate that I’ve only about 300 mm leaway. Is the F type unusually long or have Persimmon built a useless garage?

    Center Console Air Vent

    Feeling a bit miffed, had the car 3 days and the first fault has appeared. Started her this morning and the center console air vent didn't quite raise fully and didn't retract when I turned her off. I have seen some comments on a US forum that they stick occasionally, is the reasonable or is it...

    Insurance Is Bizarre

    New to this forum, but feel like a rant after a call to Admiral's call center where I spoke to a gentleman who was absolutely incapable of deviating in any shape or form from his script sheet. At least for me, Admiral are by far the cheapest option and I got a quote last week for adding the...

    To Cover or Not

    Due to the new lockdown my new 2015 convertible is being delivered on Friday, but not to my home where I have a garage but to my partners where it will live on the driveway until lockdown ends. I have been thinking of getting a winter cover of some type, because I'm concerned about it getting...

    Maybe soon

    Just disposed of my old 350Z and looking at replacing it with something faster and classier so here I am. Hoping to find a soft top, 2015-2017 with no more than 25k on the clock and a max budget of 35k. Hopefully this is reasonable? Is there anything I should look out for, especially any known...
