Well after only having the car for less than a week I decided to get up close and personal with my car. Like anyone who is religious with their cleaning or into detailing there is no better way to spot faults.
Firstly I found 3 individual areas that have dirt in the paint.
A paint defect on the left front wing
The rear spoiler seems to be lifting on the right hand side and on closer inspection it has not been fitted correctly. It sits further forward on the right hand side.
The third brake light is full of moisture. I know headlights can experience this but not an LED brake light.
Being an R sport both plastic side sills sit too far back and don't line up with the rear wheel arch.
The plastic filler on the top right hand inner quarter panel that's visible when the Bootlid is open has been glued and the rubber is all white and brittle like you get with superglue on rubber.
There was a lot of small rust spots from metal particles in the drain channel around the sunroof and also in the channel beneath the rear window visible when you lift the Bootlid.
Add to that a series of flat spots when making more use of the Rev range and that's quite a collection.
Now you could say I am being super critical but this is a £37000 car and certainly not the standard I'd expect from Jaguar. My local dealer is going to get to know me quite well I feel and I look forward to the Telephone call from Jaguar.
