Just wondered how people had specked up there cars?
I've ordered the r sport in blue fire 163 ps manual with black pack

 

[DeniseD]

Nice choice, but I'm a bit of a Sport freak! I was looking at the 4 series, lovely car but to get the same spec really pushed up the price.

 

[DeniseD]

Another question though...manual v automatic?

 

[Alex]

I had to have the manual to get the low tax bracket with it being a company car also have to put up with 17" wheels as it can't be specced with bigger on this engine. I can see an upgrade happening when I receive the car

163 PS Prestige in white with light brown seats. Option: folding back seat. ( I have an estate car at the moment, so I need to concede to practicality in this way...

I went for the 163 Prestige Automatic in Ammonite Grey with the latte interior.

Options wise, I added:
- Power mirrors as it's quite wide for its class and our underground car park at work is not
- Front sensors and reversing camera (see above)
- Spare wheel - having torn a sidewall on a Welsh mountain road before, I wouldn't be without one
- Meridian stereo
- Lumbar adjustment
- Split-fold rear seat (even my Audi TT has this, and has been very useful on occasion)

Ran out of budget at that point, but would have added xenons next. My commute is mostly lit, so not essential but do make the car look better.

Wow were there any options you didn't spec lol

 

[NevboXE]

Heads up display. Not sure about that would have to see it for myself. Looks a bit distracting.

haha it looks like you've just copied and pasted the options sheet @NevboXE but well done, it should be everything you need and more.

 

[NevboXE]

I hate having buttons on car that do nothing. So I'm going for nearly everything

 

[Felixstowe]

I've gone for the 180 r sport, in white with black pack. Parking pack, memory pack and keyless entry. Roll on June !

 

[XES Owner]

Probably the last new car I will ever buy, so after seeing and sitting in one in the 'flesh' decided to treat myself to a:

Horrendous price

Considered BMW, Audi & Merc. but swayed by looks & spec. of the Jag XE. Hope I won't be disappointed when it's delivered in June!
