The inevitable DRL failure has affected my headlight, just as I am thinking of selling my F Type. If I sourced a replacement used headlight, how difficult would it be to replace the actual headlight? Would it need to be coded in, and would it need anything extra like a ballast?

My 2017 F type V8 R is due a service and I cant seem to find my owners manual (typical!). What needs to be done for the 8 year service?

I think I need a new o2 sensor and it seems like a common issue. How much is this to get replaced? Thanks in advance.

I posed this question on an F Type Facebook group, and although we didnt reach a correct answer there were some interesting responses. So... Looking at the official figures the F Type R does 0 - 60mph in 4.1 seconds. The newer F Type 575 does 0 - 60 mph in 3.5 seconds. How does it achieve this...

Does anyone know if I can get the black and silver Jaguar badge (pictured) cheaper than £53? Yep, I am tight lol!

I am looking at getting new alloys but I'm unsure of the sizing. They are 20 inch wheels and wider at the back, but I need to know the width and offset, can anyone help?

Paramount performance are currently offering a reduced price supercharger pulley and remap, taking the bhp from 550 to 615/625 bhp. My question is, has anyone had this done and did you notice much of an increase in power and acceleration in a real world environment? It is already a very fast car...

I have the basic Meridian system and I'm keen to upgrade it without breaking the bank. How could I do this? Would it be simple enough to install an amplifier and better speakers and sub in the space of the existing speakers? Would I need to install a separate sub in the boot?

Thanks to everyone that helped with giving me advice on buying an F Type. The idea was to buy a V6 but that soon changed to a V8 (and the budget moved a little north too :o ), and today I picked up my new 2017 V8 R. It's got all the bits I wanted, pan roof, fixed spoiler, performance heated...

Hi guys, I really like the P7 style grill and surround. I think it gives the front of the cars a clean look. There are a couple of reputable UK places online that sell a replica P7 grill and surround for circa £750. I have found a Chinese equivalent for around £150. It says it's carbon fibre...

This is the rarest factory colour I have seen, its Madagascar Orange ultra metallic satin finish premium paintwork. I can imagine its a pain when you get stone chips!

Could someone point me in the right direction of where I can find the service schedule for a 2017 V8, along with what needs to be done at each service? Thanks in advance!

I viewed a 5 litre F type today on a 2019 plate. I looked through the paperwork and noticed it was a P450 version. I thought all pre facelift were 550bhp? How do I know if a 5 litre F type is 450bhp or 550bhp?

Hi all Thanks to everyone who contributed to my choice of V6 thread. I do like the 400 Sport, however... I did some classic man maths and realised it would not cost a lot more than the V6 to run. So with that in mind I have found two V8s that fit my budget and requirements of FSH, fixed...

I viewed a 2017 F Type today (the 400 sport for those of you following the other thread). The car sounded fine while running but when I lifted the bonnet I noticed a slight ticking sound. Is this normal or a potential problem?
