    That’s one of the options I’m looking at? It’s either a 65 plate 3.0d portfolio S or a 13-15 3.0 petrol supercharged portfolio (preferred option but VERY rare). What are you thoughts on ownership? 

    To be fair , I've been really really lucky. 2010 3.0d xf+s . Brought on 163k miles and now on 199k with only consumables to fix, brakes tyres etc..and a coolant outlet leak , which is common. Really good to drive.

  2. The dash lights were also an easy fix. Removed the instrument cluster trim and the the screws holding in the cluster.

    The green multiplug looking towards the clocks on the left whilst latched properly, when manipulated flashed the dash lights , on found a place they worked permanently and secured into that position with a descreet placement of a tiny plastic wedge. 500 miles done of perfect dash lights.

    No other issues to report ...

    This is unusual , my other car is a 3.0d jaguar xf-s 😂

  3. Thanks for your reply. Mean that the fuel temp rev and speed , no illumination at all . Then all comes back for a second then goes out again. Logical it's a loose connection but could be anywhere, wondered if it was something common.

    The window is switch on , on the switch. So door card off and check the power at the motor then . Where is recommended to buy a replacement please?

  4. Hello 

    Just brought a 2001 honda accord 3.0 v6 auto with 62k and full dealer history and belt change this year completed

    Picked it up last night and noticed as it got dark on the way home the dash lights are not working, the dimmer switch in the cluster is dimming and brightening ok on the gear selector  indicator and the odometer. Has anyone had this before , is it a common issue please?

    The only other issue i can find is the passanger window motor is silent and not doing anything from either switch , any ideas?

    Thanks
