I think you've had a few jobs done on your XFR under warranty??  :-\

Central locking fault (twice)

Folding mirror motor replacement.

Weeping rear diff.

The car was also initially fitted with incorrect rear tyres. 255MM when they should be 285MM.
Motor both times? JLR do use some of the shittiest electrics known to man sometimes.

Just did a search, not on the top 1000 so may be restricted to the Ford left overs in the X250

Could probably make an issue of that...
Footage up to the point of disconnect should suffice.

I know the time she left and the time she was returned. Any speeding tickets or CCTV of the car in a red light district have nothing to do with me. ;)

They may say it was accidentally disconnected when giving the interior a vac. ::)

I will check out the existing footage though.

I should imagine they disconnect them as a matter of course. Privacy and all that.

Just had a look.

The old boy who collected the car drove very sensibly although the expression OFFS was regularly used when he encountered traffic build up.

The plug was pulled before the car was taken into the workshop.....and not replaced.... :-\
