Almost as good for getting your juices flowing.

1/1/2014 is the date dashboard defaults to when you reconnect the battery after winter slumber. My F-type is back on the road after a very long winter. I can say that this year, it is especially welcome reprieve.

Would not have guessed that, mine is a MY2106, will have to check and see if I get the same date. JLR just replaced the battery 2 months ago.

Glad to hear your done with the long winter, in the eighties here today (26c for you metric guys)

Obviously, in 2106 a time machine is a standard equipment on any Jaaag.

I can beat that. Last time I disconnected the battery, the Nav system defaulted to what’s shown below. Good to know the clock will still work when I’m 157.
