first trip

[tommy.h]

Hi All

 

picked up car on Thursday  2009 XF prem lux 275. all i can say is what a superb drive.

drove to Newark on Friday (Woodhead Pass and M1) averaged 42 mpg going and 39 mpg coming back (just a little lead footed on return journey).

got to say must be one of the best cars i have owned.

i have small problem with locking on rear offside door , but David at GK cars in Woodford where i bought car from says he will pick car up and have repaired and returned.

 

i wonder though if anyone can help with a copy of up to date Satnav disc? as mine is a 2009 disc.and the roads have changed a little.

  anyway i am enjoying reading all your comments and advice.

please keep it up, also if i have any input that may be of interest be sure i will post.

 

regards

 

Tom

Hi Tom,

 

You could try:

http://www.navigation.com/Jaguar-XF-2011/Western-Europe-2014-2015/jaguar-eu/product/T1000-22179/en_GB/GBP/

 

I got an earlier update from them for mine and it's the real article - it's Navteq, I believe it's where Jag get theirs from anyway...

 

Having looked this up I see there's a more recent one than the one I bought, so will probably buy a set for myself anyway.

 

Glad you like the car - I'm absolutely loving mine, 6 months into ownership... with the possible exception of the sat nav, actually.  Doesn't always find me or find a route, and takes me off junctions when it does work and then on at the same junction.  All a bit crazy, but maybe 2014-2015 update might improve it.  Strangely, it seems to work better the more I use it..?  Doesn't spoil the car too much though, everything else is just so good..!

 

Cheers,

Ian

Hi Charlie

hi tom, maybe you will, and i hope you do to, its only 30 quid. i just bought the garmin lifetime maps ect have only used it once. although my oldest took a loan of it for the last 2 weeks as he started with a new company so was away down in hull area trainning. said it was fine. but it will sit in my compartment for a while before i use it again. charlie
