Anybody know of a Jaguar Indie in France, preferably SW within 100km of Limoges?

My XF has developed a fault with the audio whereby the iPod/USB/Aux ports no longer function. I took the car into Pericaud Jaguar in Limoges and they kindly did some diagnostics whilst I waited and said that there is a fault with the Touch Screen and it needs to be replaced at a cost of €1500. I've been in touch with a Jaguar parts supplier in the UK and he reckons that it's unlikely to be the Touch Screen but more likely the Audio Connectivity module which is under the passenger seat and is not unknown to cause problems, he also suggested contacting an independent to get a second opinion hence my question. I can get a brand new Touch Screen in the UK for about £400 or a used one for about £150 if it's that that is indeed the problem. I asked the dealer if they would fit a replacement unit if I sourced it and of course the reply was NON!, so I've still got the problem of getting it done somewhere.

I also contacted Sturgess Jaguar in the UK where it's been serviced in the past and they said it would cost in the region of £1200-£1300 but wouldn't give me an actual price over the 'phone.
