Go figure.

I'm surprised at how few problems Jaguar had reported. After owning an
MGB-GT, I thought British cars were little more than maintenance hobbies.


A friend's got a 5 yr old Jag. Loves to drive it, but his wife's had to talk
him out of shooting it a few times. The latest bull****: The car's got
sensors to tell the driver when parking & headlights are burned out. The
sensors or the method of installation are defective (which confirms was any
real mechanic will tell you about Brit cars and electrical nightmares). If
it's the sensors that are bad, they're a couple hundred bucks each.
Ridiculous.


Be careful, Kevin will call you names for referring to Jaguars and Brit
cars in the same paragraph!
