AFAIK they come only with a door handle if you buy from Jaguar or the usual
suppliers. I think some creative types have used a bicycle handbrake cable
or such as a replacement.

I got one in Sydney no problem from a local supplier, just the cable…

Good luck, Dean

I’ve just used some bits of cable and a few clamps to fix my
cable. Of course, assuming yours is broken. It only cost me
$5 or so.–

Search for my 2008 post on using a 10 cent bicycle spoke.
Bending 90 degrees the mushroom end threads smoothly through
the handle’s eyelet. Loop and hook at other.

Replacing the whole cable was impossible for me. Good luck–
