Default Picking up my 2018 F type R AWD tomorrow!

Hello

I am very excited to be picking up my first Jaguar tomorrow! It is a a 2018 R AWD. My previous vehicle was a 2006 Cayman. I am hoping forum members could provide me with thoughts/advice in respect of avoiding difficulties. I will undertake regular schedule maintain but i am wondering if anyone has additional advice (for example i understand there can be battery issues, should i get battery tender? Do i need to anything to maintain the supercharger? Should I put clear coat on the rear wheel wells to avoid rock damage etc,.). Any thoughts would be most welcomed.

Thanks

Welcome again jack london,

Good to hear the search has been successful:

Definitely get a battery tender. Most members use one of the CTEK range but don't buy it from Jaguar.
