Front and Centre Floor Pan
The floor pan is a three-piece construction with
handed dash panels, welded front suspension
housing, an integral centre bearing panel for the
driveshaft and a large under-tunnel heatshield.
Rear Floor Pan
Multi-piece floor pan design, the rear tub is
designed to accept either a full size or space saver
spare wheel and the luggage compartment has
four tie-down luggage loops. Two plastic covers
are located under the rear seat and these give
easy access to the fuel tank mounted components.
A plastic battery tray is located below the luggage
load floor.
Roof
Provision has been made for roof rack fixings and
the roof has reinforcement for vehicles fitted with
a the sliding roof.
Sliding Roof
The sliding roof has an exterior encapsulated glass
roof panel, with sliding sunshade, and has tilt and
slide operation. The sunshade is available in two
colours to match the headlining. Note that the
sunshade cannot be closed if the sliding roof is in
the fully open position or has been partly closed
from the fully open position; this is because the
J.501.1775
SLIDING ROOF MOTOR ASSEMBLYpull-cup is hidden. To allow access to the
sunshade pull-cup, the sliding roof must be fully
closed. Special screws are used in some locations.
When replacements are required these screws are
supplied in packs, do not use any other screws
than those supplied. Low battery voltage may
prevent operation of the sliding roof although the
relays may be heard operating. The sliding roof
cannot be fitted as a retrofit item.
Body Side and Quarter
The vehicle has one piece body sides and one
piece door opening panels, with full height ÔAÕ
post and ÔB-CÕ post reinforcement. The jacking
reinforcement joins the door opening panel to
rear quarter inner reinforcement panel. Large
vacuum-formed wheel arch liners are fitted front
and rear. A sill appliquŽ protects the BIW
sheetmetal from stone damage and an anti-chip
coating is applied to the sills
Closures
One piece door inner and outer pressing with side
impact beams. One piece front and rear door
hinge reinforcement panels.
Door sealing is a triple seal system:
¥ primary seals - single sponge profile with part
dense rubber foot, ÔCÕ-channel mounted on
the upper door and peg mounted below the
waist.
¥ secondary seals - body side flange mounted
carrier with sponge and dense rubber,
colour-keyed trim flap
¥ margin sealing - flange mounted roof
rail/gutter seal which closes off the upper
door opening line above the waist and
terminates with a shaped moulding at each
end.
A variety of different profiles are peg mounted to
the ÔAÕ and ÔCÕ pillar periphery below the waist
and also door bottoms. A separate ÔBÕ pillar seal is
riveted as part of the ÔBÕ pillar appliquŽ.

Front Fenders and Bumpers
Unique fenders with one style to all markets
incorporating side markers/repeaters.
Front bumper covers are single piece, body
coloured, flexible, low speed impact resistance
(5 mph/8km/h) with a steel beam, attached to the
cross rails and integral grille assembly. The front
bumper has an energy absorbing foam core and
includes provision for air ducts for brake cooling
and telescopic nozzles for headlamp power wash.
Chromed bumper blades and provision for front
fog lamps (or blanking plates), are included. All
vehicles have a removable front splitter vane.
Care is required when refitting the bumper to
ensure correct alignment.
Rear Fenders and Bumpers
The bumper beam is an aluminium extrusion,
mounted to rear rail brackets (5mph (8km/h)
bumper system).
As with the front bumper it has compression
moulded polypropylene foam and is colour keyed
with chromed inserts.
Reverse Park Control system, assisting the driver in
reversing manoeuvres, operates through four
sensors, bumper mounted, at the rear of the
vehicle. The system provides audible warnings to
indicate the distance to an object behind the
vehicle (see Electrical/Electronic section).

Hood
Unlike current Jaguar cars, the hood is hinged at
the rear with single pivot hinges and gas struts. It
has two primary and one secondary latch for
security. The primary latches are joined with an
intermediate cable and release of the primary
latches is by a single cable from the hood release
lever on the driver side of the vehicle. The two
primary latches are handed for LHD and RHD
vehicles. The secondary latch, mounted on the LH
side of the hood between the grille and inner
headlight, is provided for added safety and must
be hand released before the hood can be fully
opened. Hood sealing comprises front and rear
lengths of sponge bulb, pegged to the hood inner.

emergency manual release by tag and wire in the
RH side of the luggage compartment. The cap,
when removed from the filler neck, is held by a
retaining strap which can be passed over the hook
on the flap to allow easy access for filling the tank
and to prevent scratching of the surrounding
paintwork.

Cool Air Inlet
The climate control air intake is through a plastic
moulding attached to the engine compartment

Trunk
The steel trunk lid has two hinges with one
damper and covered springs to assist lid lift. The
lid can be released using the switch on the fascia,
using the key-ring transmitter, or, if the vehicle is
unlocked, by a release button on the lid. An
emergency lock, key operated, is provided for
access to the trunk if, for instance, the battery is
disconnected. The trunk lock barrel is mounted to
the trunk lid with two flange nuts. Drive to the
trunk latch is via a cable which is a snap fit to the
rear of the barrel. Trunk sealing is a simple flange
mounted bulb section with a single moulded joint.

JACK AND JACKING POINT
Jacking and Towing
The body has four jacking points located in
notches in the sill structure.
Caution:Extreme care must be taken when
positioning jacks or other lifting equipment that
the sills and sill panels are not damaged as the
vehicle is lifted.
For emergency short distance towing, or for
mounting the vehicle on a recovery trailer, LH
thread screw-in eye positions are located at both
the front and rear of the vehicle. The towing eye is
stowed with the vehicle jack in the luggage
compartment floor pan. To secure the vehicle
during road and ship transportation, tie-down
brackets are located under the floor pan. As with
current vehicles, the front vane must be removed
before attaching the towing cable.
