Thought with the new model XK(R), the old XK8 problems would be a distant memory. Of course not. Having replaced the roof lining twice in my XK8 I now find I have the same problem with my 2006 XKR. I can recall nearly 30 cars that I have owned, probably more with those I have forgotten, and the only cars which have suffered with a sagging roof lining are the Jaguars! Isn't it about time Jaguar issued a recall for this rather elementary production failure? I guess they are still using the same supplier for the roof liner/fabric as used on the XK8, but knowing there was a problem with the XK8, why!! Very tempting to just rip out the old liner and glue/retrim the fabric to the aluminium roof. At least I would be able to see whilst driving.

Agree, very annoying, every single one I have had has had same issue, from XJ40 to X150.
