Sure but it’s the tiny amount of paddle travel and a pathetic little click that puts me off Phil, where’s the meaty thunk of some proper engineering?cj10jeeper wrote: ↑Wed Aug 08, 2018 10:19 pmsorry - no hijack intended.john-e89 wrote: ↑Wed Aug 08, 2018 10:05 pmAny opinions of the flimsy weedy paddle pull on the F type CJ?

Sorry for thread hi jack Metal, that’s a lovely 718, she’ll love it and I won’t knock her teeth out..!
Easy fix to replace with alloy paddles. Even dealers do it. In my case I found a brand new SVR wheel on eBay for £200 so swapped (similar to ///M conversion on the Zed)

Glad I read this - when I saw the "darkside" mentioned I thought it might be about a diesel!

I get what you're saying regarding the flappy paddles and it wasn't as good as the JCW or the 435 but I could have lived with it
Did notice in the Jag dealership in the section they have for upgrades/spares etc there was a set of red coloured aluminium flappy paddles don't know if these are different to what's on the car (apart from colour)

Meant to be lovely cars, but really don't like the look of the 718, seems such a backward design compared to the 981 GTS.
