Hello & Happy Easter, just put my 1st jaguar in the garage a couple days ago. I'm a long time porsche / amg enthusiast so this is a new venture for me. It's an 07 with 29k miles, salsa red, senta wheels, aluminum trim package, alpine, adaptive cruise. The condition is pretty immaculate and it hasn't been buffed out yet. The previous owner plasti dipped the wheels which I'm in the process of peeling off (can still see it in the pics). . .looking forward to learning alot from this forum

All modern Jaguars are very sensitive to battery condition and the majority of annoying faults can usually be attributed to a partially discharged or failing battery. A battery tender (most members preference is one from the CTEK range) makes for a more enjoyable ownership experience.
