Nice one. I have a convertible with 11000 miles, a great car. It's my third Jaguar; I drove 160.000 miles with one with no problems. Maintenance is key; for the first 15 minutes, go easy on the throttle. Thank you for the review, and keep the car.
Nice one, I got a very rare V6 manual transmission 2018 model year, Caldera Red with 19" Centrifuge silver wheels, pre GPF with Fuse 15 out (obviously). It sounds and drives amazingly! Mine is actually 1 of 188 built for the UK market.
I can afford the 6 now and heaps of them available, I currently have a Audi A7 supercharged 6....I'm holding out for the v8, the sound is next level, the 6 seems to sound good to but I want to own a v8 for once and enjoy it before the world goes EV
Similar path as yourself, Z4M, S2000 (x2) then 2013 V6S to Supra to 2021 P450 V8. Sold the V6S as it was getting old and big bills kept coming. Loved the Supra, especially with aftermarket exhaust and remap. The performance and handling was something else, a true sportscar as opposed to the F-Type which is more a "sporty" GT car. Like yourself, I missed the F-Type character, but the real reason to change was to get back into a convertible after the Supra and just wondered if you missed that element now you're in a coupe. S2000 was the best weekend car I've owned, Z4M the most flawed.
I am looking for a 2016/17 model, hopefully with an already blacked out package so i don't need to wrap the door frames etc and hoping the exhaust hast been quietened from an update. I am terrified about maintenance costs or surprise issues. I'm in Australia and these are more expensive to purchase than Uk, having said that, these are very very rare on the road, which is what i like, I'm not a sheep and this car stands out when it is seen and heard. Currently have owned since about 2015 an Audi A7, tuned it, got some RS7 rims on it and a muffler delete and the car still looks like a recent model expensive car but i want to own a V8 before the world goes EV and starts in my opinion putting taxes on petrol guzzling V8's. I love James Bond movies and even though this car isn't a Aston Martin, it still has Bond vibes, plus i was born in Bham which is where i believe they were made, i dunno i feel connected to this car. I could immediately pick up the 6 cylinder Ftype as they are a lot cheaper here, but i need the V8, especially after driving one, i just cant see a better car for the price range in the second hand market.....Audi RS5, BMW M3/4, they don't turn my head when i see one, another car in the similar price range is the Merc C63S and im sure its prob more reliable, interior more comfortable and high tec BUT the Mercs these days are so common on the road and the C63S doesn't really stand out from a 4 cylinder recent model merc. There was the Lexus LC500 but there is just no sex appeal with Lexus despite it being a wise reliability choice...........i dont really know what to do

Nice spec, colour combo
Nice F type, colour is stunning, the running costs are at the top end~ then there’s servicing 😮
But just look at its road presence 😀
Yeah definitely one of the best looking cars on the road, especially at the price :)
Im looking at getting my first f-type. Coming from a z4, would you recommend the v6 or go straight for the v8?

V8 - P450 are incredible value (I had one). P575 performance is next level (I have one)
Why do you have the stop/start off?Mine is on most of the time around town.
