I remember these BL rocker switches. When they came out, they were so bad you could sit in the car and watch them fall apart. Not an issue anymore, I hope. Nice car.
Actually, the rocker switches from 1968 onward were very robust. I never had a problem with them (as I do with older Mercedes rocker switches). The earlier Jaguar toggle switches, however, had a propensity for the lever to become brittle and break off if the cars were subjected to extended periods (years) of hot sunlight, like in Southern California or Dubai.
Don't believe it. Cars with IC engines will be around still for a loooong time, even in the EU, and forbidding cars from driving in reverse is pure nonsense. The entire infrastructure of roads, lanes, parking lots, garages, etc., requires reversing. Don't know where you heard this, but don't buy any Rolex watches from them!

In the UK you had triple carbs, a very worthwhile upgrade.
Requires a triple-carb manifold, which is a pricey piece. It only came on the Series 1 E-Type and Mk X/420G.
Sadly soon All Gas cars will be forbidden in EU thexGrrens in Germany just forbid driving cars in Reverse
