    I have a 2021 p575 looking at the dash it seem like an alcantara material, and I don't want to muck it up by using the wrong cleaning agent. What do you guys use to clean it?

    Water spots after washing

    I did a search for water spots but nothing. Did a wash yesterday looked perfect. This morning lime scale runs under the mirror on a dark car looks terrible. Reading on Google most are using white vinegar, is it safe? How do you deal with them?

    F type V8 R (2021 Face Lift)

    Having bought mine in March this year, after 9 months of searching for the spec that I wanted, I decided to leave the search engines on, to get some sort of guide as to what the prices would be like further down the line. What has amazed me is that approx 80% of the cars I looked at and tested...

    Nice sunny dry day today

    Made up an excuse to look for Christmas presents and went for a 70 mile run, this morning. I bought the car in March, having had a late TVR Tuscan for 12 years which never let me down. I have to say that I have never been as satisfied as I am with the Jag. It's the first car I've ever had where...

    Convertible drain point and cleaning.

    Had the car a few months now and decided to take a look at the hood, with a view to checking the drain points, I noticed that with the hood in different positions it needs a good clean where the hood finally seals at the back and the rubbers could do with a silicon lube. But I could not see the...

    3 Keys

    When I purchased my car it came with 3 keys, 2 work on the remote, and the 3rd only manually opens the doors via the key. I assume only 2 keys can be registered to the car, or can I get the 3rd one programmed as well?
