I've got to send a ladyfriend to collect a 2004 XK8 convertible on Saturday and drive it 250 miles home. I need to brief her as she isn't familiar with the car - but neither am I (unless all functions are identical to my 1997 XK8 coupe...). So, could anyone please help me with the following:

a) locking/unlocking - standard remote fob as per my coupe?

b) move seat forward/up - same dial switches on right side of driver's seat?

c) steering wheel adjustment - what can she adjust and how?

d) steering wheel lock/unlock - how to unlock?

e) boot open - same as the coupe, ie remote fob or button by driver's right knee?

f) bonnet open - lever by passenger's left knee?

g) fuel filler cap open - button by driver's right knee?

h) fuel - Super Unleaded?

Any other tips to get her back in one piece? She won't be dropping the hood - and she has driven the coupe before. Thanks...

Simon, it's essentially the same car, different seats and maybe a different key fob, but it all does the same thing.

Hope it arrives in one piece! wink
