Does Ken Stout have all the diagnostic equipment etc for the newer Jags?

What about German Automotive Ltd (GAL) in Glenfield.
I stopped in there as they were recommended by whom I brought the XFR from. GAL said they have all the diagnostic equipment etc for Jaguar. My XFR is having its 1st service in August and I'm still not sure who to use. Right now I'm leaning toward Roverland.

Ken Stout has done a good job on my S-Type, I had a tricky error emanating from the cars electrics when my car was only a year old. They called in "The guy with the diagnostics" who came and fixed it straight away.
Might be worth having a chat to Ken Stout they are a no frills place that will tell you how it is.
I haven't used German Automotive for over 15 years when they used to service my Golf. They did a good job at that time.
I had a Rover 75 that went into Roverland for a new cambelt, a week later the cambelt pulleys collapsed and ruined the engine.
Hope that this helps.

I just had my 08 X358 serviced by Jaguar Workshop in East Tamaki. I am perfectly happy with them.
Jaguar Workshop | Jaguar Specialists for All Your Servicing and Repair Needs

I was going to get it serviced by Archibald&Shorter, but they refused. That's what I said. Some bumfluff about not being able to service older models, I suspect they can't be arsed servicing cars not sold by them. So that's the end of Archibald&Shorter for me. Hell, I won't even look at a car previously sold by Archibald&Shorter. Of course, that's Giltrap, and who knows what their overall policy is. (Honda are perfectly happy to service my import Hondas)

I use Beacham (since Jaguar Workshop moved to Pukekohe).

There's The Toy Shop, haven't used them myself but they own 1 or 2 XJS V12.
