Default Question before purchasing

Hi guys,

Looking to purchase a 2014 XF SC V6.

https://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-...ink=true&Log=0

It has a leaping jag on it and I'm not sure I like it. Can this be removed? Are they screwed in or adhesive?

Also I notice from the pics it has an extra button on the car. Is anyone able to provide details more so than what is listed in the link on autotrader?

Regards!

The bonnet (hood) leaper is 95% of the time bolted on, if so removing it will leave one maybe two holes that would need to be filled and painted, or maybe covered with a sticker or similar. I have no idea what the "extra button" might be, I can't see any "extra button".

Here is one at my local dealer in central Il.

Certified Used 2013 Jaguar XF in Peoria IL | VIN: SAJWJ0EFXD8S77462

2013 Portfolio (loaded) AWD with only 22K miles, and certified for another 3 years and 78K miles.

And you don't have to worry about that silly leaper.

They don't fit the leaper over here so have a badge to put there which you could fit.

sorry the button is on the seat. See where you can adjust seat movement? There is an extra control there that I don't see on other xf's
