    Of course the glovebox won’t close the car is mullered. I have had Jags for years and they have been bullet proof provided you look after them. The trouble is because like many luxury cars they fall into the hands of muppets who won’t/can’t afford to maintain them then trouble starts. Just got an F Pace SVR and it’s fabulous. By the way SVR stands for Special Vehicle Rating.

    The GX means it's for xe,xf or f pace platform... the last letter at end is minor change revision and last but one letter can be different engine variant I think... I work with jlr exhausts and I don't think that exhaust is standard as the 575 one we make looks completely different to that.. I know janspeed make the one for svr range rover as its low numbers... Good luck with build 👍

    Finally, one of you tubers has the balls to get a Jag! :) Ok, so the younger audience are now going "really, a jaguar, you do know they just are made from tin foil and super glue..." and although the build quality is less than optimal, they have a soul. Pace, grace and space, or something like that...
    Well done!

    Word of advice, if push comes to shove and you do have to buy from JLR, go straight to a dealership and speak to the parts department. If you ring JLR up you will get through to Jardine and they are absolutely hopeless. Worked for the halesowen branch that covered the nations JLR and it was very short lived. Literally kids with no manners and haven’t got a clue what to do. Hope this helps, avoid the headache.

    The first bit of the part number GX73 defines the model, the middle part of the number defines what part it is and the first of the two letter defines the speck of the part and lastly the end letter tells you what level the part is, each time the part is superseded the last letter will go up

    • @skatinrocker
      @skatinrocker Рік тому

      Part numbering is prefix, base, suffix. Prefix determines the model year, base is the part type, and suffix is the derivative of part. But if a number goes from AA to AB for example, it’s down to a change which has superseded the the old part. For interior parts there will be additional letters added to the end of the suffix, for example AB8PVJ. This relates to the colour 😉
