Default GTA Jaguar lovers

Any Jaguar lovers from the GTA or southern Ontario? What kind of cars are you guys driving and are hoping to drive?

It seems I'm often on the F type or F pace site, but forget to go on our Canadian site. So, I missed the news about the Caledon event as an example and so will be sure to check into this site more often.

Regarding the question of Jaguar enthusiast.
I currently own a FType R (2015) , an Fpace SVR (2019), and an XF Portfolio that I keep in Florida. ALL have been really great cars to drive and own with minimal issues. Actually the FType R goes between here and Florida pending time of year.

In the past I've owned a XJR, XKR and XE sport, which had all been excellent as well.

Hope to catch up to others at whatever event comes up for 2020.
Lawrence

Default Antenna

I had similar problem. But mine stayed up all the time. I loosened the nut at the base of the antenna just a bit and pushed it down manually. Now it works great. Up and down every time except it stays out about an inch. Figured it’s not worth risking to break it so I’m leaving it how it is.
not sure if loosening the nut helped. But you can by a motor kit for it. I saw them online when I was working on mine. Maybe $200. It came with the part that has the teeth that cause the antenna to go up and fown

Just sold my S2000 and Carrera 4S and bought a ‘17 F.type S. Love it so far, but miss the manual shifter.

Default Love to shift.

I realize there are manual F Types but chose the auto as I have gotten tired of the clutch in city traffic.
