I understand your frustration my mother had one of the first alfoil XJ's and every time it was started it would chuck out about a dozen engine faults and simply would not be fixed so she politely handed it back.
But brake pads are to an extent brake pads, Jags are very light and rear brakes do surpassingly little work so I wouldn't be too shocked by Focus front pads . 2008 MY Supercharged
Rimini Red / Jet
four zone climate
remote park heater
and no ugly kid windows.

I'd second that... If you are running the front pads from a Focus on the rear of a Jag, then you have nothing to worry about! If anything, I'd be buying them from Ford now knowing this

Yeah, I'm a cheapskate!

My XJ did me well for 6 years now. One (small) fault since I bought it.
