Bulletproofed 2004 x350 / XJ Super V8 - common issues?
Hello, All! I’m new to Jaguar Forums and this is the inaugural of what will hopefully be many posts.
I live in São Paulo, Brazil, and recently purchased a 2004 XJ Super V8 with 80,000km and in nearly perfect condition. As is unfortunately required here, the car is bulletproof - having been bulletproofed upon initial purchase from the dealer.
Whilst I have not yet had the opportunity to undertake any close and careful inspection, I thought to see if anyone here has experience with bulletproof X350s and, if so, whether there are any common issues that one may encounter as a result of “bulletproof-ing”.
I have a feeling that the front and back parking sensors may have been affected, but I’ll need to investigate this.
Any thoughts / experience would be greatly appreciated!
Many thanks in advance!
Richard

Good point! Thanks for the thoughts - I’ll have to get the tires and brakes checked! I just had suspension checked and new parts installed. You’re right as to the quiet interior - super quiet!
