Parts bin specials

It always amzed me as a child some Jags used to have Ford Escort dash switches in them, kinda lost its feeling of specialness when I saw that, so its nothing new...

But would agree, particularly you'd expect a next level of sophisticated electronic toys when paying the next premium price bracket.

Keeping similar looking parts ties a brand feel across a range, it works if its nicely done and quality of materials moves up with the price.

Yeah you're right... it's COMPLETELY different

       

Absolutley nothing like one another, don't know what you are all making a fuss over

Some of the cars I have seen have an Evoque style steering wheel..........

its our old friend called evolution... I have to say i had the XF as a loaner car and I just didnt like how things were laidout. RRE was a lot more thoughout with the interior so props to the designers!

It's just like any other car manufacturer, it keeps costs down. If you have a good system in one car why not share it among others in the range.
