<div>Hi Alan</div>
<div>Great till they go wrong and cost 10x the amount of a cable system.</div>
<div>My Range Rover sport lost the end from one of the motor driven cables and this then pulled the cable in locking up the motor. Impossible to then drive! A garage would just change the motor/ cable assembly costing £500 for parts and then have to strip and
set up both sides. So 3 times the price with labour.</div>
<div>I googled the issue (same system on jags etc) and it is possible (after a couple of hours! Upside down under the car!) to free up the motor shaft. Then it took a couple more hours to strip brakes and setup. Try searching all the issues!</div>
<div>So no thanks, most owners would prefer the 'old system'!</div>
<div>Regards Andy <br>

<div><br>
</div>
<div>My BJ8 (and also my Jag Mk IX) both have rear disc brakes. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I was wondering if anyone has ever thought to install electronic parking brakes on their cars? Anyone with experience/thoughts?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I just got a Tesla BJ-S and I have to say I really like the electronic e-brake it has.</div>

<div>Best,</div>
