Or cheaper still.............do it yourself.

Enjoy your XF but be prepared for electrical glitches and avoid main dealers.

I would probably still be in a Jaguar had I not been let down badly by main dealer rip offs and poor service from Jaguar Cars even though they finally replaced my corroded doors.

Google XF door corrosion on that one !
