Next time I go over I will do a Google check. I did that just now and although they are not "all over the place" there are a significant number and not necessarily in places I would suspect.

We got real ones all over the place here, and they’re even listed by address on the inner webs. Fortunately, Waze knows where they all are.Originally Posted by scm

We seem to be specialising in average speed cameras - near me there's a 14 mile section of motorway works with a 50mph average limit, the only real use for cruise control I've found. Originally Posted by Unhingd

That’s what cruise control is for. ASL is an insidious feature that panders to our sensible, yet useless, side.Originally Posted by scm

ASL is fantastic for cannabis users. You can mash the gas pedal and not wonder if you are going too slow through Gestapo headquarters.

Today I spoke to a Jaguar Australia mechanic (ie. a direct employee) in charge of their drive day fleet and he hadn't heard of the recall. He was skeptical, but I've read the articles with my own eyes. Meanwhile F-Pace SVRs and F-Type R's were thundering past on the racetrack that was hosting the drive day.

There must be more than 28 V6 examples between 2019 and 2020 in Australia... How did they identify exactly which 28 and what makes them different?

28 sounds about right to me, the Oz F-Type market is tiny and around half of those these days are the four potter.Originally Posted by Lani Kai

Easy enough to identify by the TOPIx build date and engine type.
As far as I can tell they are no different sound-wise than the earlier models and instead it is the legislation/regulations that have changed with lower stationary noise levels allowed. Remembering that Oz F-Types are built primarily for the UK market and compliance with their laws and regs not the Oz laws and regs.
