Jaguar Land Rover are reporting issues with supply of parts

The firm say that they are being impacted by the Coronavirus outbreak

Jaguar Land Rover only has enough parts in its UK factories to last the next two weeks because of the impact of the coronavirus on the carmaker's supply chain.

The firm's chief executive Sir Ralf Speth reportedly said parts have been flown into the country from China in suitcases.

In Coventry to launch a self-driving electric vehicle dubbed Project Vector, he said JLR's factory in China would re-open next week.

But he admitted uncertainty over whether the company would have enough parts to maintain production in the UK.
