Default 2016 F-Type convertible MT V6 wish list

Had Buckingham for two weeks and love the car.

Just a few wishes:

1. Locking gas cap cover. I guess since every other car in America has on, any gas thieves or vandal would assume Jags have one too.

2. Double lock doors that can't be opened from the inside.

3. Latched ECO turnoff button like my BMW has.

4. Protective cover for the exposed part of the top when down so that part doesn't fade or get dirtier than the hidden part.

5. That I learn to not hit the climate and emergency buttons when I hard shift into third.

6. Storage compartments for small things that attaches to the roof of the boot cover like my Z3 had.
That's all for now. Love the Meridian 770. No rattles or buzzes at high volume.

curious, what's the purpose of #2? Seems kind of dangerous that you can lock yourself in your car?

Default Double lock

To prevent someone reaching in and opening the doors when the top is down which is always.

Try opening from the inside when your key isn't present. The whole neighborhood will know and your iPhone will let you know as well.

Which reminds me. I wish the Incontrol remote had sounds with the notification.

Whenever my phone gets an update from the InControl I get an ICON, AND I simply have my phone set up to make an audible tone when I get any notifications.

As a matter of fact, I usually remote start the car to get the AC working while it's in the parking garage and I'm walking out of the office. Once I get in and start driving away, I ALWAYS get a tone to from my phone and I ALWAYS look at it before I get on the highway, and i ALWAYS know that it's going to be the notification from In Control... Grrr....

Can't seem to do that on iPhone 6 unless the app allows it.

Not an iPhone user but my Samsung Galaxy has different volume control for Ringtone, Media, Notifications, and System...

Can't remotely start the MT. Guess some people leave it in gear. Could be a disaster.
