Court Jester is probably a more apt title ...
Most of this stuff used to be common knowledge once ..... seems to have been disregarded as not important ... since the advent of bling and bluetoothy I-fone thingymajigs becoming the most important components needed in a vehicle these days.
Still ... I suppose those things give ya something to do while waiting for the tilt tray or natrad or century batteries or ... or ....

Certainly is a major issue with the XJ azza ... but its also relevant with any vehicle from another areas sales market ...
Having had a TJ and a coupla XJs ... The TJ is more capable of handling the heat but still only just adequate ... Some tweaking for personal use makes all the difference .... Just like with suspension / tyres and stuff.

The Jeeps are a good framework to build improvements into.

So true Auberon
Straight off the showroom floor - they at operating at their ... best ?
...... and then many expect more from the vehicle ... in our environment .... and get surprised when the temp gauge behaves like a tacho gauge or the auto gearbox starts smoking
Heated mirrors, heated seats, excellent interior heating, factory fitted foglights .... Just what sort of sales market is that all aimed at ? ....
