Came here to say that Harry's definitely got the storage issue sorted, and the rain and speed didn't seem to be an issue. But it seems everyone has watched Harry's video, except maybe Sam. 🤣
My respect for Jaguar went way up seeing how gladly they’re letting Sam spend time with their products and special opportunities like this. Love seeing that storage!
I wish I could send you a personal thankyou Sam, you along with a number of other car people have kept me going these last few years, Saturday last week I took the plunge and finally bought one of my dream cars, a 1954 Morgan +4 four seater. It wasn't looking for this car in particular but it turned out to be everything I wanted in a car. The first trip out was heavenly and all those years fighting the blues, trying to figure out what I wanted to be all faded away. I'm extremely fortunate to have the opportunity to get and live my dream, but watching you on drive the world, and seeing people like Duncan Pittaway living his classic car dream, kept me going and gave me purpose and drove me to my dream. I'm sure I'll get go meet you one day and I can only wish you the best as you continue your journey.
A Project 7 would be an amazing thing to compliment the 360 and would say is properly undervalued currently, great usable collectors/enthusiasts cars but not an every day proposition.
The P7 is one of the rarest and best cars ever made. Good luck finding one. The 2015 F-Type R is essentially identical, so thats an easy choice. And all V8 F's tune to the same effortless 700HP, making the 2014 even more essentially identical.
I absolutely appreciate that you, Sam, have access to dailies, but the faff involved with that roof would make it undrivable for 75% of the year. It'll look fantastic in the garage, but it's beyond impractical.
I do hope you get a Project 7. Cause I feel that it's a car you love so much that you'll keep it permanently with your 360. The Project 7 is the coolest and most special of the F-Types so I hope you somehow can afford one. If not then I would go for the SVR, just because it sound better than the new R. Nice video.
If love to see a video where someone just follows you and shows all the behind the scenes setup and filming you do. These vlogs are so great and then when you think about the extra b-roll you do it’s very impressive.
Weird, I saw a F-Type SVR convertible last night(also in white) and now this video goes live! Maybe it’s a sign I need to buy one too😂. Fantastic video as usual Sam
There s a bloke in the Cotswolds a farmer I think, He has a modification out for the boot. Dramatically increases usability. It's called a pen knife I think.
At the risk of repeating commented below… Sam…. A 60+ year old bloke has demonstrated less drama putting the roof on and off a project 7 and has also gives it considerable more over-steer on some interesting roads (don’t say being him being in the alps is an excuse).
Great video! Didn’t Harry from Harry’s garage say you could 150MPH with the roof in place? 🤔 perhaps check out his fantastic latest videos on it, blasting around France.
Sam I have a 2013 f type R with carbon brakes, it was registered in December 2013, the first f type R that was sold in the UK was registered in March 2014 so I have the only 2013 R in the world !!!!
It works if you're road tripping from UK to the south of France as Harry proved, however I kinda think you'd be better with an old SVR for the UK. Maybe a P7 in time where you can just use it for that kinda driving and have other super/sportscars for the UK.
Fun to watch. Glad my lowly Audi A3 Cabrio electric soft top only take 10 seconds to put up and down!! A very cool car though. Just watched Harry's France road trip
If you do end up purchasing another Jag it would be really cool to see a updated version of the Monaco road trip when shmee had the Cayman GT4 and SOL had the lambo but with the new cars, like the project seven, the 718 GT4 and the GTR from SOL
Great video with the Project 7. I remember the first time I saw one, it took a bit of Internet searching to work outexactly what version of the F Type it was.
Sam dream jag for sure. Sound amazing on over run . But roof is not practical you not use for road trips well or day to day out no store trips out going solo
Can’t believe I’m saying this but I prefer the modern F type. It’s much more usable as a car you could daily drive. In my mind the project 7 would be a car you couldn’t really drive much because of that roof. Imagine taking it to mainland Europe ? You’d need a separate car for your luggage
Ok I understand Sam can not deface the press car but as a project 7 owner, I have had the bulkhead in the boot cut away and retrimed. This allows for the roof components to be stored in there bags and the full set of f type luggage set to be carried in the boot. I can even place more soft bags into the wheel arches. I believe the project 7 has more capacity than a standard roadster.
Do like the Proj 7 but would have to be an SVR coupe for me, that P7 roof looks a right faff and no boot space for touring/overnighting either... Great track weapon though...
Slowly *but very fast, Original *2014-2020 Jaaag F-Type is on the road to become Valued classic car, continuing E-Tyoe tradition 👍🏼 Happy to own 2016 F-Type 🙏🏻 and all that sound is Magnificent !
There is a roof how-to on YT - and from Harry’s road trip video we can assume that the top speed with the canvas mounted is slightly above 60 mph. ruclips.net/video/lDv7qaXMa2c/видео.html
At 4:48 was that an XK 120 convertible that you dismissed? lol The only reason i think it's one of them,it was on TopGear when they did the race,between the train and the bike...
Awesome vid Sam! I think a project 7 would be an awesome addition to the channel or any ne2 F Type also at 5:59 thats a 1949 Buick Roadmaster woody wagon, got no idea what it's at Jaguar 🤣
In terms of depreciation, a P7 must be a better bet than any other F type even if the purchase price is higher. Am sure you've seen Harry touring France in his and appears to be water tight in heavy rain too....
The only one for sale currently in the UK is at £135K ouch! But it is BRG which Sam would love but it doesn't have Tan Leather. I am sure Jaguar would fix this for Sam!
Watch Harry’s Garage Harry just took his on a 2k road trip through France and Italy and stowed his roof behind seats and modified his boot space to enlarge it.

It's funny seeing how Sam struggles with the roof, while for Harry Metcalfe it's a piece of cake. 😂 Practice makes the master, I guess.
Any one who’s owned an early British roadster from the 60’s . Would be rolling there eyes
I just commented same thing - Sam go watch an expert at Harry’s garage
Harry from Harry’s Garage seems to have nailed the roof storage, although not a solution for a press car 😂
Yeah and I think he l be going a touch quicker than sixty driving on the autoroute. I'm sure he said it was 150 mph you could do.
Today last part his long trip to the Route Napoleon
He also proved the roof works and keeps heavy rain out.

Harry, from Harry's Garage, is currently blasting around France in his Project 7 and can't stop raving about it. They must be good.
TODAY last episode about trip across 🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷!!!
He also showed how to stow the roof and maintain boot space and mentioned the speed with it on was at the 150mph mark I believe.
@@wheelsandwatches I am a lucky project 7 owner. The speed limit on the roof rail states 120mph with the roof in place
At 16.38 the plaque says it's 1 of 250. I thought Harry owned number 1, hence all the signature on the inside boot lid.
@@jonnyleslie1 I think that plaque is just to remind the owner that there are only 250 units built, not that it is car number one built.
you need to do a collab video with harry's garage in regards to the Project 7. that would be awesome.
omg imagine that
But he has a Project 8 doesn’t he?
@@magnustan841 he owns both.
All of a sudden I’m thinking the roof on my 718 Spyder is a work of art!
You can hear Tony laughing from his house when Sam is fitting the roof 😆 🤣 😄 😂 great vid Sam 👍 👌
Nooo, that’s not enough farting around! That warehouse is epic!

I instantly loved the blue on the project 7 when it first was launched 🤤
A Project 7 would be an amazing thing to compliment the 360 and would say is properly undervalued currently, great usable collectors/enthusiasts cars but not an every day proposition.
Sam’s passion for Jaguar is contagious! I almost forgot about them…..
Would really like a tour of that jaguar collection! There are some amazing cars hiding in there with great history!
6:52 sams f-type really was the coolest f-type around at that time
The P7 is one of the rarest and best cars ever made. Good luck finding one. The 2015 F-Type R is essentially identical, so thats an easy choice. And all V8 F's tune to the same effortless 700HP, making the 2014 even more essentially identical.
Harry’s garage says you can go up to 150mph with roof on surely it’s not 60mph Sam 😂
I would love to have Tony doing commentary as Sam was trying to build the roof
Wow, that museum was awesome, could spend days just looking at all the cars. Great video
Everyone keep sharing his videos so this man can buy a Project 7!
Glad to see you finally get to experience one for a little bit, Sam!
We love to see a project seven on channel
The passion in your voice Sam speaks volume, alot of other vloggers should take note , not just vlog for a video 👍 great content Sam keep it up 👌
thank you so much for showing the roof works
its just small mysteries in life which when unveiled give you joy
awesome video!
I absolutely appreciate that you, Sam, have access to dailies, but the faff involved with that roof would make it undrivable for 75% of the year. It'll look fantastic in the garage, but it's beyond impractical.
Go and watch Harry's garage's 2000 mile roadtrip in his, looks perfectly practical!
What a place and what a car! Thanks for being us along for the journey Sam 🙏
Jaguar are probably doing the best PA of the car world by understanding it’s completely worth it to let this guy enjoy their cars !
The Fire car was the Thrust SSC fire support. Thrust 2, SSC and the new LSR car are all in Coventry Transport museum.
I had forgotten how EPIC the old f type sounds.... Man oh man it's so cool
I thought the 718 Spyder had a bad roof, that thing looks like such a hassle hahaha
I do hope you get a Project 7.
Cause I feel that it's a car you love so much that you'll keep it permanently with your 360.
The Project 7 is the coolest and most special of the F-Types so I hope you somehow can afford one.
If not then I would go for the SVR, just because it sound better than the new R.
Nice video.
Those pops and bangs are crazy….. enjoy your time with it Sam….
Until you take it to Jaguar for the latest software update/pop exhaust nerfing...
@@chapacubraelderscrollsonli3491 Very true avoid all the updates 😂
#1 Jaguar LR ambassador on the Interweb, have finally come home, and hurray with camera!!!
If love to see a video where someone just follows you and shows all the behind the scenes setup and filming you do. These vlogs are so great and then when you think about the extra b-roll you do it’s very impressive.
Love the angle. They do lambo. They do Tesla..they do Ferrari. You do Jag. Class !
That sound is glorious!
Get an SVR soft top with some Lister mods best if both worlds and an tad cheaper than the project 7
If there's ever a better advert for the patreon it's the promise of more Project 7 content 😂
Got a white XKR-S GT and a white Project8 (just put 1k miles on it this weekend… ) looking for a white Project7 LHD now… love that one!
Thanks for re-filming the Star Wars Endor speeder bike chase scene @ 15:25

There s a bloke in the Cotswolds a farmer I think,
He has a modification out for the boot.
Dramatically increases usability.
It's called a pen knife I think.
Love that the drivers on the side are Ian Callum and Mike Cross ... the genius team that created the new era of Jags.
Awesome car and great company, my brother worked for them for years, even I was treated with the same hospitality that you are, big love to JLR
Fun vlog style Project 7 update, perhaps a compare and contrast video with Cayman Spyder, more roof antics✌
I have a fast growing love for the Jaguar F-Type. Hhhmm might have to get one some day.
Suddenly the Speedster roof seems so easy and fast 😂
Hi Sam! Greetings from Massachusetts

POP UP AIR VENTS... NICE..
I would love to see a 4c on the channel again
Maybe only a testdrive would be cool
A project 7 in racing green with silver wheels is probably my dream car
The collection is incredible 🤯
One of the best videos in RUclips I’ve seen in a long time! Congratulations Sam!
The XK-RS GT is one of the most underrated cars in the world. On of the best balanced cars and so wild! Please take a look
The roof? A small inconvenience for what is a super special drive. Just ask Harry doing a French tour in his. What a Jeckyll and Hyde beast!
"Oh my giddy aunt!" And "farting around" classic private boarding school lines 🤣. Love the project 7. Buy one. Don't over think it.
Literally predicted this! We said the Project 7 was a piece of you in my last video! 🤣
Speaking from experience, we has the Project7 and the Jaguar SVR in our collection. Buy the Project7, you won't regret it
Cheer
It works if you're road tripping from UK to the south of France as Harry proved, however I kinda think you'd be better with an old SVR for the UK. Maybe a P7 in time where you can just use it for that kinda driving and have other super/sportscars for the UK.

Also sam use the handles in the boot to close it, no need to tohch the paintwork. I wouldve thought you knew that sam!
Sam dream jag for sure. Sound amazing on over run . But roof is not practical you not use for road trips well or day to day out no store trips out going solo
Today’s my birthday and you’ve given me the greatest gift, f type content!!

That xkss is beautiful! You should definitely go down the project 7 route it’s like it’s meant to be
Do like the Proj 7 but would have to be an SVR coupe for me, that P7 roof looks a right faff and no boot space for touring/overnighting either... Great track weapon though...
I didn't know it even had a roof🤯. But it sort off works😬. It a unicorn that need to been in your collection
That seems to be VERY exclusive access to the collection there. Well done. Very interesting video
Love my R. Getting one in the states is a steal.

Great video Sam, look forward to you driving some of those other cars from the Jaguar Classic range.
Harry’s garage advises the P7 hood renders it ok to 150mph - not 60 mph!

ruclips.net/video/lDv7qaXMa2c/видео.html
Harry said with roof on at least 150mph.🙏🏻
Harry from Harry's Garage just posted an insta post where the manual shows that the roof can be used up to 120 mph (193 kmh)

Sam and Harry need to do a drooling session on this car really. oh and a Roof tutorial!
Sam the fire engine XJ was the fire vehicle for Richard Noble's Thrust 2 land speed record run at Black Rock desert, Nevada in October 1983.
That "roof" is bonkers
The last generation F Type is just a beautiful car.
This makes the roof of the Porsche Spyder look like the easiest roof ever 😄 Thanks for another great video! Already looking forward for the next one 🙌
Awesome vid Sam! I think a project 7 would be an awesome addition to the channel or any ne2 F Type also at 5:59 thats a 1949 Buick Roadmaster woody wagon, got no idea what it's at Jaguar 🤣
Fire engine @6:18 - I thought that was used in support of Thrust SSC in late 90's.
In terms of depreciation, a P7 must be a better bet than any other F type even if the purchase price is higher. Am sure you've seen Harry touring France in his and appears to be water tight in heavy rain too....
I assume that by now you've seen Harry Metcalfe's vid on the Project 5 and how he modified the trunk space.
Because of its Guirks like the roof I like it, and what a sound track, 👍
I could easy get lost in that warehouse for a few days! Just buy the P7 Sam, that thing is rare and epic!
If u can go to it, get it, its value will just increase, and at some point be uber collectable...
Good luck either way..
Class act
Next time your in the same countryside area Sam, give me a shout and have a drive around! And get some decent driving roads 👌
The only one for sale currently in the UK is at £135K ouch! But it is BRG which Sam would love but it doesn't have Tan Leather. I am sure Jaguar would fix this for Sam!
