These weren't available last year and are not listed in the F-Type accessories catalog but I noticed them on the Jaguar UK store so thought I'd let folks know.

Available in rhodium silver or gunmetal:



The gun-metal one looks pretty nice.

 

Found this on Amazon for around $6. Got two of them and they actually look pretty nice. Only thing I did was replace the join ring with a 9mm split ring so the leaper would not get lost over time.

 

Have you been able to successfully order from the UK site and ship to the US? I recall trying to order early this year and they would not ship to US. It looks like that has possibly changed but I have not gone completely through the process yet to place an order.

 

Best key fob I've ever had!

 

Why should anyone here believe you? You're not only in your very own universe but terminally unhinged!!! Never mind...

I agree!

 

And how many of you have slid off the shiny Jaguar part to reveal your actual key? Hint: there's a little arrow, showing which way it slides off.

 

I've not, sorry. I've just seen it on ebay (here).

I use a different keychain on my main set of keys, and have an older Jaguar fob on my spare set:



As a design enthusiast I like this one more because -- despite not being F-type specific -- I find it captures the design spirit of Jaguar better (dynamic, sinous, sculpted, metallorganic lines, etc). It also echoes the iconic Panthere design from Cartier.

 

 

I R an engenir. I had it disassembled first day. Even know where to put it. (lol)

 

Me two!!!

 

I R not, and did too, but have had several other vehicle fobs with a similar design.

 

I'm an eclectic engenir, and know some comical and maniacal ones.

 

Not only did I have the key open and sorted on how to get in to the car in the event of a dead battery, but came to realize that I better not need the jumper cables that are in the back at that same moment as they aren't going anywhere.

 

wasn't trying this the other day and couldn't get it off, so thought maybe it didn't come off

was great on my lexus because i could slide the key off and give the fob to the valet thus keeping the rest of my keys and the actual "key" for hte car.
