If that comment was for me, thank you very much.

 

That's the trouble with Stelvio - I would have gone faster if I could have. But there are three cars in front of me blocking my way...

 

 

Just picked this up today

 

And, what do you think of this black panter...

I see you prepared well ; you remembered to lock the car. No doorhandle sticking out

 

Looks amazing, sounds amazing, infotainment is clunky, and rearview camera resolution is laughable for a 2016 model.

Is there a way to lock the car from outside without the mirrors folding?

 

No way in my MY18 that I've found so far, which is annoying as I prefer to disable it during very cold weather to prevent them freezing closed overnight. On my previous 2010 XKR power-fold could be disabled via the touchscreen, but I've not found a way in my F-Type.

 

The dealer can permanently disable it in the firmware, read in the manual..

 

Yeah I know, but I like the feature in the warmer weather, and I don't want to drive for half an hour and pay big bucks to a dealer to do what I used to be able to do in a minute in my XKR.

 

Benelux Meet & Drive, took place today, started from Breda in the Netherlands..
I tried to contact some members from this forum and asked them to join the meeting, but no reponse.

Apparently I am the only person active on both forums, in the region of The Netherlands / Belgium / Germany that is...

 

 

Men in black ?
I see a shimmer of green..

 

nope ... but I did already sign up ;-)

 

Nice. Must be something in the air - we had a get-together in Maine this weekend...

I just noticed that there is not a front license plate in sight. Glorious

 

I was pleasantly surprised by that too.

 

You lucky people! Though you do have other things to contend with, I understand.

 

Most of us are required to have front plates, but in over 5 years, no one has noticed or cared, in my case.

 

Out here in Bend OR they don't seem to care but I understand I can get in trouble if I drive the car to Portland which would be problematic because that's where the only Oregon Jaguar dealer is located. But since they are 130 miles away I've only been there twice, and only once with the F-Type.

 

 

How do you have the rear flap raised? I'm in NY and mine won't do anything even when i press the button. I thought it was a USA Law or something? It does go up automatically at 70mph and lower at 50
