Easter Egg
Just bought my first Jaguar in mid December. 2004 XJ8...
I read the manual front to back and have since given the car a good once over... Just found my first Easter Egg.
Accidentally pulled up on the cup holder and behold a secret compartment!
Any other Easter Eggs?

RE: Easter Egg
Sorry about the duplicate picture, I'm still a rookie here
It looks like one is for coke cans or bottle water while the other is for fast food drinks.

Panels...
Neat find. I checked mine and it's the same way.Yours is nice and clean. Mine is disgusting. It seams to me that the tray is there tocollect spilled Starbucks, soda orColt 45 that spills out and down through the little rubber band tensioners when the ******* in front of you slams on their brakes.

RE: Easter Egg
Speaking of slamming on the brakes, yesterday I was going down a 2 lane county road at about 65-70 mph when someone pulled right out in front of me. I slammed on the brakes and was ready to hear bending sheet metal in 1 or 2 seconds. Went from cruise speed to crawl in 200 feet. Was most impressed by the way the car handled it. No screeching tires or swerving just a confident panic stop. The moron that pulled out in front of me had handicapped license plate on his car. I guess thats for how you drive as well as where you can park.
I wish I had as much grace under pressure as my car does!!!

Dishwasher or just warm water and dishsoap work well on the cupholder, the felt lining below can acutally be quite disgusting as well. Id just recommend a soapy wet paper towel to start off with, and then a woolite wipe after, then a thorough drying. The combination will get any old residue/smells out quite well.
