Unfortunately not.

You need to fit at least an ACM (Audio Connectivity Module), which gives you an aux in, then you can add bluetooth capability to that in various ways, ie add a Motorola T605 http://www.amazon.com/Motorola-T605-.../dp/B000N85PLS, or add a bluridge adaptor BluBridge mini-jack Rx | Miccus Wireless Audio Solutions

This thread https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x...fficult-44942/ has a lot of useful info

@Dave

I started out with the Miccus and while the sound quality was good, it did not automatically reconnect if you got out of the car and then came back. This required you to press the button on the miccus each time to re establish the connection. Now, that may have been a function of my Android phone and you may get different results with an iphone, but I then got the Motorola T605 and it solved all my problems. I have since changed cars but the first thing I bought for the new car was a Motorola T605 and will be fitting it very soon
