As a new owner of a 2004 XKR Coupe, I'm wondering if anyone in the area has a recommendation for a good, trustworthy tech in North or NW Chicago Suburbs. No service is needed as of yet, but it would be nice to know for future service needs.

 

Try Francen and Sons, in Algonquin.

 

Thanks. Have they done work for you? I'm in Algonquin on a regular basis.

 

Francen and Son are extremely friendly, knowledgeable and helpful, but quite expensive in my opinion.

They wanted $3,000 plus additional cost for parts/fluids to swap my engine.

 

I had my brakes and some work done at EuroToys in Elgin.

Fair and honest to me, and really knows his Jags.

I'm planning on going to him for my rear rotors and pads very soon.

 

I agree you will be very pleased with Mike from Eurotoys he is very good.

 

I just had work done at Coventry classics in Richmond Il they really seem to be fair they did my tensioners on my 1997 xk8 also repaired my cruise control. I thought maybe it was the brake switch but is was a loose vacuum hose. I will diffidently be going back they specialize in jags older and newer ones

 

They do great work reasonable rates and appears to be honest

 

Also had some work done at Coventry on my X308. Very knowledgeable guys, courteous, happy to explain and "teach" me info about my car... and reasonable prices. They are willing to work within an established budget to get you what you need done (and nothing you don't!)

Definitely will continue to use them.
