My salesman replied that he knows nothing of this. He has his own FType in fact and was miffed that he didn't get a keychain!

I didn't finance through Jaguar, bought outright. Second Jaguar with f type plus a Landrover last year. Purchased. No gift for first Jag that I recall, gifts for Rover and f type. All same dealer.

This is like a British mystery novel.

I did receive the growler keychain with my lease, but who puts something that big and heavy in their pocket? Besides, I would rather have something that is on my "outside" showing off the brand. Porsche also gave me a nice key ring, but I never used it.

Default Half dollar size

It's only the size of a half dollar. Maybe the picture makes it look bigger. If it was substantially bigger, I could glue it to the top of my pop-up shifter knob for a cool look..... not.

So... I had mentioned on the little "service review" thing (I got one from corporate, a call from corporate, a call from my dealer, a survey from my dealer, and some whitelisted/generic auto world survey. That's a bit much. BUT... I mentioned "if I am going to be without my car for a week, with no available loaner, you guys should have some fun with your customers, and offer them a nod and a wink about how much we love our cars, how we are understanding and appreciaitve it is being fixed under warranty, but a little gift or fun schwag would be appropraite to remind us that you guys know what it is like to be without your awesome vehicle".

That was verbose... I said something like that.

Yesterday I got this in the mail. LOL Stellar performance and the thought counts. I won't mention that I don't wear baseball hats (wifey runs in them), the cup is a cruel reminder of our manual transmission cup holders (tho far better than the original poorly made non vacuum cup they gave me), and an ADORABLE Baby leaper keychain, far smaller than the one I just bought. Speaking of...

nice leather classic Jag (same as pictured hat) logo keychain

big leaper. Too big. 2x size of pictured one they gave me.

this thing clips to the belt and is VERY nice. really like this!

I am thrilled, impressed, happy, honored, and I am just being a pinhead joking about the cup, etc. They are so awesome. I need to get them some bubbles.

Anyone get a copy of the magazine in the mail? One of our hotels produced a luxury focused magazine as brand positioning, etc. Quite interesting, seems to be all the rage for lifestyle and luxury brands.

Didn't realize there was a Jaguar Magazine (duh!). Not clear to me if this is the same magazine, as I can't find anything relating to a 'design issue.'

I don't know, but the XF concept with nary a door handle is breathtaking

Got mine on Friday last week. Nice magazine. This is the new wave of industry branding. High end specialty pubs that look like regular magazines but with high end product tie ins to the brand. Even my formerly stodgy hundred year old firm is headed down this road. I hope they send this regularly.
