Default I'm a Jag owner again! This time with a 550hp F-Type R!

Hello everyone - I was around several years ago with my 2010 XF Supercharged. I sold it a few years ago when I started working from home more. I'm now a new owner of a 2015 F-type R with the 550hp 5.0 engine! 32k miles on the clock. Black. Had a $109k MSRP (blackout package, extended leather package, red seatbelts, no pano roof, Vision Pack, and an up charge for upgraded wheels). The car seems to be in good shape with the exception of: 1) Sticky buttons (in process of cleaning those), 2) falling leather headliner, and 3) missing square piece in front that covers up the tow hook hole. Otherwise car seems to be just fine. The headliner is the big pain right now....it's hanging so low you really can't drive the car as it blocks your view. I'll be posting in the F-type section for help/ideas on a fix for that since the car is out of warranty. Glad to be back and hoping for some fun rides in the near future! Oh, I'm located in PLANO TX....a suburb of Dallas TX.

Hello,
Congratulations on your Latest Jaguar!
I've never seen a car with that tow hook cover in place if it's been off the lot more than about 2 weeks. I always think the car must have been towed once and the wrecker driver didn't want to replace it. Or forgot about it, whatever.

That headliner sounds like a serious problem. I hope you can find an easy way to fix it.

Welcome back to the forums from ElinorB.
