Very nice car. Where did you get it? I usually keep an eye on the greater Phoenix market and had not seen this one locally.

Had a respray of at least the rear parts by the look of it..... both the "XK" and "R" emblems are not on straight.

I had the same problem. Fixed it with some fishing line and some emblem adhesive.

I personally like my car better without the rear badges all together.

Thank you JaguarJeffrey! Was lucky enough to snag it at Jaguar of Chandler. Good thing I put the deposit down early, several others tried... I'll have to keep an eye out for you! haha

Looks like the emblems may be coming off... Maybe I'll try to put back on at a later date.

I like the look without emblems too. Think I will give it a try and see. Sharp looking ride!

Defo 295 rear and 255 front, the GT alloys I was going to get had 315 rears!

Updated pics, no fancy background, no excuses as I work in Cheddar, so could have taken it up the gorge (purely to cause an avalanche and some pics!)

So apart from the 7 day paint correction/detail/ceramic sealant, new tyres, wheel nuts have also:
Fitted wortec discs and ebc red pads with new brake fluid and lacquered calipers
Black bonnet vents
Some front seat cushions and seat belt pads
Wireless interface for bluetooth audio streaming
LED internal lights
Aircon recharge (£30)
stick-on number plate
carbon fibre effect valve caps
Transmission flash https://www.diesel-performance.co.uk...ox-flash-tool/
Vehicle tracker installed
Dashcam installed

Forgive me for being lazy but have only had the car for 6 weeks!

Still have to:
upgrade wing mirror puddle lamps
Fit winter Vulcan's
Change front headlights
Carbonwrap mirrors
Carbonwrap side sills/rockers to prevent further road rash
Fill holes and repaint front bumper
Install boot cigar lighter socket to power cool box
Install a couple of additional fast charging USB's
Install DTUK pedalbox plus (with app control)
install DTUK performance petrol tuning box (with app control)

You'll not regret the paint correction, as it will really make that white pop!

Beautiful! How long is your guying having yours, ask as mine was in for 7 days? Ask he was a bit of a perfectionist...does all the showroom cars for local Aston dealer.

If it's an R remember to ask him to remove the bonnet vents after wash/ferrous and clay and if poss the wheels to have those ceramic coated on the inside of the rims.

One thing...when it's in...it's REALLY going to bug you...so get him to send you whatsapp videos of what he;s done each day

Just back from London and body shop had dropped my car back after flattening and filling the 6 holes.

They even fitted my new front stick-on plate (after I made a hash of it)

For the princely sum of £100
