Jags are awful they break all the time. If you tune them they fall apart so much. I've own 2014 vw gti, 2015 Mercedes gla 45, 2017 audi rs3, and a 2022 bmw m5. Plus jags are so slow for the price. My bmw does quarter miles in 10.8 also my audi rs3 does quarter miles in 11.7 which is faster than that jag. That jag does quarter miles in 11.9. It's sad that a 400hp audi is faster than 575hp jag. My buddy had that f type and it broke so often. Same with his other Jag. Also electric cars are awful and a long story.

@@scoopaway9176So if you're just an old guy putting around Town.... the Jag is safe ⁉️
The green paint combined with the colours of the leather in the interior… it’s just so classy and beautiful
My 2013 JCW Mini is the same color combination. Very British. Very classy. Even on a Mini Cooper.
It costs a few thousand to put that colour on the car.

yeah its cool!!
I’m a sucker for you’re mom
I loved the 2016 ones
The sound it makes is music to my ears 🎶🎶🎶
I own one which I love but it's beginning to show its age. The interior is literally a decade old
Best part of the F type is the fact it will be just as beautiful a car in 59 years as it is today
Worst part about the F type is that you don’t need to wait 59 years to discover how unreliable Jaguars are

true that
😜😜😜True story back in the day I bought new 1983 Jaguar XJS 12 cylinder coupe. I was going to trade it in on another car and sales manager said you will do better selling it private party. Put ad in newspaper-yes this was the 80s. Got call from professor from Long Beach State University and he came to see the car. He asked if could go by his mechanic to check the car. They talked quietly and after he came to me and said the mechanic was worried because of evidence of chronic oil leak. He asked if we could go by the dealer where I bought and serviced the car. The dealer mechanic put on lift and when asked by the potential buyer and mechanic replied in heavy accented English "This one has leak but better than most and they all leak". At the end of the day we made a deal and sold the car. Sorry for the long comment!
Very Clever Video, loved the self banter! Guess the only way to make you reviews better was to add another you!!!
Dude. You built a magical video here. You expressed enthusiasm for the F Type commensurate with its heritage. You did the same in a more reserved teutonic manner. You are quite talented and intelligent. Well done and keep up the great reviews. Me? Old guy whose dream car at 16 was a 1968 Jaguar XKE in British Racing Green. Now, after a career as a Marine Corps officer and an oil and gas exploration geophysicist I can land 2023 Jaguar F Type in BRG with a couple of thousand miles on it for ^9 to 72 k. I'm a happy man. Cheers my friend.
That intro was gold! So glad you're on the autofocus team now, they couldn't have picked better.

How's the reliability? I hear Jaguar engines are broken more than they're working normally
@@Thq-ff8wz so I always see mixed reviews about the reliability of Jaguar. Back in 2020 I purchased a brand new Jaguar E-Pace for my wife and she put about 50k miles on it in about 3 years before she traded it in for a bigger SUV. She only traded it in because we needed a bigger SUV keep in mind. During those 3 years 50k miles not a single issue. As of right now, I have now owned my F-Type for just over 7 months now and I have not had any issues. Yeah, I will admit the infotainment sucks, including the touchscreen, but that would be my only gripe.
@@TheProjectManager100 nice one
Smashing stuff. Your channel popped up on my RUclips feed and I immediately wondered “where has this been all my life.” Your reviews are fantastic. Keep it up! Two comments on your review: 1) yes, the Meridian sound system in the F-Type isn’t the greatest, but I honestly can’t remember when I turned the radio on in my 2021 F-Type R…the exhaust note is my soundtrack. 2) The simple fix for people who want the sub 3500 RPM roar and all the pops and bangs of the post 2021 F-types, is to pull the active exhaust fuse. I did it, and will never go back. No modifications necessary!
Jaguar didn't invent the oil leak, but they perfected it.
No issues and owned mine for years.

Wow nice car you got it’s my dream car
I owned a 2018 F-Type SVR briefly. It was a blast to drive and had power for days. Aggressive and unabashedly loud when you wanted it to be, but behaved and refined when needed. It was just too much power for me as a daily driver. Still loved that car.
There is no such thing.
How was the resale value?
@@bwalker4194Exactly.
@@yinshah3303 These manage to hold value after they fall about 40-50% off of their original sticker, picking a used one up is a killer deal. I had a 2016 F-Type R for a little while and even now I am itching for another.
@@Dreznin I’ve been interested since the prototype. How much was maintenance and repairs if you had any?

I don't have a problem with the infotainment system cause my car it's a coupe even with open cover for the moonroof , the sound system is not the best but is still good n I'm planning to add a subwoofer in the trunk and changing the door speakers with better one but in the same diameter to keep the stock looking for the interior , the exhausts are amaaaaazing in stock , people don't believe me that they r stock but definitely I'll modified theme just by deleting the cats or a stainless steel 3 inches straight pipes , and maybe i will create a wide body for it by myself cause i have a 3d printing machine with a scanner cause there's no tuning accessories in the market... I will tunit after few thousands miles n drive it till the 30s thousand miles and sell it or trade it for an aston martin vintage v8 2022 or a Corvette c8 z51 stingray
I think the Meridian system you have is the 300w option. There is a 700w option that says "surround" under Meridian that sounds much better
I’ve had an F-Type SVR for almost 2 years and it’s been my absolute favorite car I’ve ever owned. It’s an absolutely beautiful extremely underrated car. People ask me all of the time of the “maintenance nightmare” it must be, but honestly the only issues I’ve had were an O2 sensor and a battery that needed to be replaced. I could not recommend this car more.
You had it only 2 years. What do you expect? Having an O2 sensor go bad on a car less than 2 years old is pretty bad. It is a pretty car, but I do NOT trust Jaguar quality.

I have a F Type 5 litre R , older model 550 bhp with a fixed spoiler which really gives it curb appeal and I absolutely love it , excites me every time I get in it , recently done a 2000 mile across Europe and the car attracted lots of attention, for the price these cars are the best on the market , also for £650 I can remap to give 600 bhp, loved your vlog here in the UK
this jag looks good, especially the exterior. but if I had the money in this class it would be bmw 850i convertible for me
Beautiful car, I personally have a 2015 F Type R Coupe, and it is so much fun! Great video!
I’ve got the 2019 F-Type V8 so I’m biased, buts it’s my favorite sports car Ive owned, I had a DB9 and a supra both excellent, but this machine is so much fun to drive. I’ll also say I’m truly pleased about its reliability, zero issues at 20,000 KM.

Out of curiosity, have you driven a Lexus with the 2ur v8? (Is500, lc500, RCF, ISF, GSF). Got to be one of the best sounding and feeling v8s I’ve driven. The LC500 is an event to drive, it’s just such a pleasure!
Two lovely cars but I prefer the F-Type as well... Nice review!!!
First time I have seen one of your vids. Well done. Followed. I have a 2010 Jaguar XFR and nothing blends comfort and raw visceral performance like a Jag.
saw you driving the Jag on Belleville turnpike and i was really impressed!!!
love that jag. truly underrated af! great vid miles! considering the F Pace SVR next, its just so perfect, hopefully reliability aint too bad. (currently got a basic caddy cts, but i hate how turbos feel, i want supercharged and awd)

Great call on the f type! I Purchased one of the first F type Rs ever and I loved it until it tried to kill me a few times. Its somewhere in the middle of a sports, muscle, and GT car but I wouldn't say its a budget supercar. That's more like the 4c or the new emira.
I have owned my F-type for a year now and it is just a fantastic car. I've owned two SL-500's , Porsche Boxster S , Lexus SC400, and the F-Type makes me smile the most.
Bought a 2018 R Dynamic V6. The wife took to calling it “poppy” because of the silly ass sounds it makes. It’s almost impossible to drive it without giggling.

Excellent video! These are 2 cars that I think are definitely underrated in the modern age of 1000HP plus HyperCars.
I think the AMG GT & 911 is what made people forget about the FType
And the new GTs & 911s are so much heavier and numb than they used to be. F-Type feels so much more RAW

Excellent. Exactly the kind of stuff we want to know presented by a very likable guy so I subscribed. And I’d also go with the Jag.
Also this car looks insane i don't care what anybody says.
How’s Jag’s reliability nowadays though? We have a 2006 XJL that doesn’t give us many problems but I haven’t driven any of the newer ones after Tata
Tata has made them more reliable compared to earlier troublesome platforms
authentic, clever, fresh inputs , nice vibe!! great job. (BTW, I would also pick the jag just because of the NOISE and not so common like the merc).

F-Type all day long. Own a 2023 P450 AWD Coupe. Love it! Nothing comes close in smiles per mile.
The jag f type svr is my dream car. i love how under the radar it is, how fast it is, and how affordable it is in comparison to cars with similar performance
NICE video work..it really adds to making a valid point about your comparison of the 2 vehicles beyond the VERY cute "gimmick" that kicks it off.
I test drove a F-Type. It was a ton of fun! The crackles when you let off the throttle after flooring it are also awesome. Just couldn’t see it as a daily driver.
Jaguar neutered the exhaust sound In 2017 models. If you were able to get your hands on 2013-2016 the pops and burbles are INSANE. I purchased a 2016 V8 R AWD and removed the stock airboxes and put large cone performance intakes. When the car revs around 3,000 rpm it sounds like Ferrari. This version also has the upgraded meridian surround sound that 770W and comes with a TV tuner and DVD player stock. You could go to velocity AP and purchase the supercharger pulley and tune to get the exhaust notes from the 2012-2016 models but its going to run you almost 5 grand.
It's important to buy cars when interest rates and prices are low. My financial advisor also gave me the same advice. When rates and prices are low, it can save you money on financing and make the overall cost more affordable.
My financial advisor advises buying cars when interest rates and prices are low. However, he also cautions against it right now due to the hidden costs of car ownership, like insurance and maintenance. He helps me plan for these expenses and manages my portfolio to ensure financial stability. It's all about making strategic decisions and having a well-rounded financial plan.
Having a well-diversified portfolio is essential for financial success. A financial advisor can provide expert guidance, minimize risks, and offer insights on profitable investments. They bring experience and expertise, ensuring your portfolio is optimized for success. It's like having a trusted ally by your side, helping you achieve your financial goals..
My Financial Advisor is Samuel Peter Descovich. I found him on a CNBC interview where he was featured and reached out to him afterwards. He has since provide entry and exit points on the securities I focus on. You can run a quick online research with his name if you care for

I feel you on the addictive driving gas consumption.I supported a $350+ a month aggressive cruising habit for more than a year with my built engine 620rwh Terminator.Funny how it is like a drug,if you can’t control it’s use,it will put you in the poor house.Nowthat I’m older,that Jag looks really sweet.
I wouldn't really call an F-Type a supercar, but they're gorgeous in my opinion. I do see a lot of them where I live, so a bit of a downside if someone likes something different here. I do like "old guy" roadsters (former SL owner), so the intro was working for me lol. Loving your videos BTW.
Supercar is an arguable term, but it's definitely not exotic, as I've heard some people try to refer to it as. What is undeniable though, is that these things are a blast to drive. I had a 2016 F-Type R for a short time and even though you can get more features in a Benz or Porsche, the F-Type always just felt like a wild animal that was ready to misbehave the moment you stopped asking it not to.
I always think of supercars as being mid-engine. But then again, you also have some front-engine cars like certain Ferrari's and the AMG GT that are considered supercars as well. So I guess it depends. But yeah, the F-Type to me is more of a grand tourer/sporty kind of car instead of a legit supercar.
its a super car without the price tag
0-100 In 3.5 seconds is definitely supercar territory
@@lunar-tick4310 It isn't about speed, it's about purpose. Atoms and Caterhams are faster than that, they ain't supercars!
Supercar - Designed for the track to set fast lap times, and for posing in upmarket areas. Compromised in ways that make them very difficult to daily. Intended to appear functional or dramatic rather than beautiful. Ferrari SF90, Lamborghini Huracan, Porsche 911 GT3.
Sports Car - Designed for occasional use on back roads in the real world. Compromised practicality, but it can be used every day if you're willing to change how you live, or as a second vehicle in a household. Intended to put a smile on your face, and be driven for fun. For looks, can be made to be beautiful or functional with equal abandon. F-Type, MX-5, Alpine, Boxter, 911, Supra.
Luxury Cruiser - Designed to cover long distances in sumtuous comfort and speed, with high levels of practicality. They have a discrete but powerful presence and appearance. S-Class, 7-series, Bentley Flying Spur, XJ
GT - Designed to be half sports car, half luxury cruiser, they can cover massive distance in luxurious comfort and have enough space to be used every day, or for a week away on holiday, but are also able to come alive on the back roads to put a smile on your face as you approach your destination. These cars are almost always beautiful and elegant, with their appearance a primary part of their desireability. DB9/11/12, Jaguar XK, Roma, Continental GT, Gran Turismo.
Sports Saloon - The partner to the GT, these are half-way between Supercars and Luxury Cruisers. Rather than taking the cruiser and sacrificing comfort and practicality, and discretion for looks and back road fun, they sacrifice comfort and luxury for sheer performance while maintaining discretion and practicality. They tend to be too big and too heavy for back roads, and tuned for track use and aggressive driving. M3/M5, C63, RS6, XFR.
I LOVE my F-Type! He's right; it's fun, emotional and raw... and it makes for a great daily. The only thing he got wrong is the amount of attention you get in one. It's almost embarrassing how much of it I get. Great video though!
How long have you owned it? And how reliable has it been?
I wouldn't say I got that wrong because I'm simply sharing my experience with the car. Compared to the Benz, the car was hardly acknowledged by anyone, especially when the V8 wasn't roaring. I think a lot of people simply can't identify the car which affects how people can get excited for it or not. Thanks for watching though!
@syfer1016 bought it new in 2018. Recently replaced the water pump, the only mechanical issue I've had to date. Maintenance is expensive now that I no longer have the complimentary maintenance, which it always seems to require. But I LOVE it!
I believe it. The green on this car is a bit subdued to begin with, so that’s not helping. F-type turns heads for sure. Especially the coupes.
Nobody really pays much attention to them where I live, but I think they're one of the most gorgeous recent cars on the road.
Very good review(s)!💯🔥
Enjoyed your video. I currently own a '07 MB SL55 AMG with a modified M113k engine. Mercedes/AMG is making their cars smaller and I cannot comfortably drive the ones they are currently producing. I was loaned a 2019 Aston Martin Vantage (the sister of the F-type) when I visited Southern California and it was a very comfortable and powerful.
The LC500 should be in the conversation

Jags are underrated even here in the uk, as for reliability they are just as good as the germans, I think they suffer from outdated stereotypes and probably fly under most peoples radar. Jags are so well designed imo and because of their rarity, they make em more special than competitors.
Their engines blows up. That's the reason it's risky buy.
Not anymore than their German competitors, bmw engines were recalled for catching fire, and there have been reports of police bmw engines blowing up, but yet bmw don't automatically get tarnished with a bad engine reputation. All manufacturers have their problems.
@@GetawayGuyDriver no hate. I love F-pace ( F type too) but googling about engine blowed up is wild. Even the one I wanted buy had replaced engine. Also my friend had f pace in jag community and lot of them had engine blowed up. So I just decided to not go for it. Which makes me sad because in my eyes it's the most beautiful car

Great, enthusiastic and honest review. Thanks!
I would definitely choose the f-type.
There are a few cars where sounds are so exhilarating that it really makes the experience. The car is usually fast enough, and when the sounds are exciting to hear, it never gets old...
It sounds crap compared to a massarati, even british topgear admitted that.
Really enjoyed your F type video - just picking my 2024 F type 75R British racing green and white interior - very excited to drive it and its the BEST😊 - and Thank you as well
I have a V6 2014 FType Spyder. Totally love it. Looking forward to getting a used P450. Great review.
My friend has a 23 F-Type and I have a 22 G82 M4C and we switched for a drive up Kings Canyon here in SoCal. I thought I'd be disappointed and it was the opposite. The sound alone makes my M4 sound like Bambi(though I'm hoping to change that a bit when my Akra comes in). I just think it's great that we have more choices at this level for performance coupes. I do know it's all coming to and end for ICE powered cars and that makes me sad as ICE cars have personality compared to EVs. I think I miss the sound more than anything. Btw very solid vid per usual Miles.

@@CRS-fe2zj Thanks I appreciate that..I won't get to personal on the internet, but I'll say this much.

@@bigzachful I tested that too! Same with the 911. They were great but I crossed them off the list early as they didn’t offer a lot for their price.

Same. Except I didn't get the HTC. Targa is good enough for me.
Good choice on the C8 HTC I own one it’s bad ass.
Owned an F-Type for a couple of years and miss that cat … replaced with a C43AMG … miss that one too! I’d take the Jag on looks alone but would opt for the Coupe … question, which watch do you prefer .. as you switch between them depending on camera angle, quite amusing … fun video, thanks and made for great viewing
Just got myself an XK. I could have had an F-Type, but it's a bit too brash for my taste. I want the growl, but not the "LOOK AT MEEE!!!" pop. I also like the grand tourer feel of the XK, and the sound system is also much better based on your description of the unit in the F-Type. I also got the coupe version rather than the cloth top because I prefer the elegant lines. Guess I'm trying to say the XK is a bit more refined experience vs a visceral F-Type. Sadly the XK has not been available new for some time now...
Can’t wait to buy an F Type. They made so few, I’ve already been waiting a few months for the right one to pop up
I like the wise guy interactions 😅 keep ‘em coming haha
Nice, havent seen this channel before, good job
First time coming across your channel, you had me at the intro! Great overall comparison and I also would have to take the F-Type. I don't care about anyone seeing me, and if the sound system sucks, oh well, I'll just listen to that exhaust for hours!
I would love to get a F type but after eletrical issues i had with my xk and hearing that there are still reliability and electrical issues with the new models, it deterred me away

I loved my vette, but it had its issues as well
@@steven-fury I don’t own a Jaguar quite yet. “They are known for it”…A guy made the news in my neck of the woods about a 75k Lexus SUV that had a bunch of electrical problems he was in dispute with Toyota about. They all can do it, even the best of them, so I don’t accept what yer saying. I know people who own them. XEs, F-types. Friends and family. No issues. I don’t get offended, they’re inanimate objects. I do however know someone spewing nonsense when I see it.
Sadly, gas in CA is very near $6/gallon, making a 13 MPG car less likely in my future.
If your worried about fuel costs I can assure you this isn't the car for you. I have a 2019 f type R uk fuel is approx $7 per gallon, but its not really a consideration in total cost of ownership.
@@scoops0406 I think you're assuming that everyone buys these cars, new. Many of those who buy them used are less likely to want to spend $200+ a week on fuel.
@@davepaturno4290 Not at all, but like any high performance cars, the maintenance bills are high. As an owner of a f type R I'll give you an example. I had all the fluids changed plus a fully major service plus some other bits and pieces, the cost was about $5,000. A new set of types will set you back $2000. So if you're worried about fuel, you really shouldn't consider one, just like most people can't afford to run 911's etc etc, as a daily drive as regardless of fuel costs, they all cost you dearly.
@scoops0406 When I buy a sportscar, I do look at all costs associated with ownership. However if every cost segment that I have no control over is very high, then I will pick a vehicle that fits my budget. I change my own oil and filters, as well as sparkplug, diff and trans oil, etc. But fuel costs cannot be reduced much, so if I can get an excellent sportscar that averages 20+ mpg vs. 12 mpg (and is not as dyi-friendly), I'd be more likely to buy the former. There are many owners out there who feel the same, especially those who represent middle to upper-middle class or who are living on a fixed income (retired).
@@davepaturno4290 12 MPG is pushing it, on a motorway in the UK I can get 30 MPG in my f type R, you can DIY all you like, tyres are a fixed cost item, as are the oils, it's not the labour so much its the parts and consumables, they aren't cheap and like all performance cars if you skimp on maintenance, expect even bigger bills.
Just subbed! Fresh content bro
I had a 2018 when I was in Orlando last and LOVED it!
Type R is the best bang for your buck
Convertibles aren't supercars, they are just convertibles...
😂 think I’d disagree. Tho if want to differentiate w/modern supercars, guess u could.
@@sdallnct it's not the matter of it being modern or not. In 99% of the cases convertibles will be worse than suoercar variants, soft non cornering boats because of added weight and totally not suited for anything hard top variants can do
That HDR hits different 🤤
Awesome review, glad I found this video.
SL any day. The interior tho 😮💨😮💨
To each their own!
Is a absolute nightmare yes.
Only good thing about is the leather.
@@gaara4667strange opinion, how so?
@@v0n314 just don’t like the look of a giant screen slapped in the middle of the car. Just look like a afterthought to me.
My vote goes to the Jag! All things considered, I'd use the funds left over from NOT buying the MB to upgrade the sound system! Other than that, that cat is a prowler that flies beneath the radar, yet still rewards the driver as much as the observers!
Love your channel Miles !!! Hope you grow from here to the clouds 🙏🙏🙏
You know what’s underrated? Its this channel. Well done!
Thank you. I'm 70 and drive a Jaguar F-Type R convertible. I stopped in the service center on Thursday and one of the things I told the manager is that you can't buy a better supercar for the money. Yes, it's a supercar. 0-60 in under four seconds, I've done it. 11.2 quarter mile at 122 mph. 186 MPH top speed. Haven't done those yet. I've had it to 142. Scary. He just said, people don't know. It's an amazing automobile. The sound. Oh my God, the sound. I also learned Thursday Jaguar won't sell or, service internal combustion autos in five years. $200,000.00 electric cars, only.
They won’t service their own gas vehicles?
142..umm I did 150 on my old Audi A4 1.8T... I am trying to beat my own record after I tune my A6 supercharged..Hopefully won't kill myself trying
I owned the car about a month when I hit 142 on a stretch of Interstate. I'm not in a contest. I'll never try to go that fast off track again. I don't want to die, either. I won't have to change the factory tuning to go a lot faster. Some guys North of me said they could get 650HP out of it. 550, now. Are you 70?
@gregpate3640 No. I am almost 50. I do like jaguars , I think they have a nice exhaust sound. I might own one someday, but I like german more specially the RS5 or RS6..
I bet you they will walk that back. 100% electric is suicide
I think I would go with the Jag. It would come down to cup holders
Idk who would ever wanna buy new after I bought a 2012 e93 m3 with an ESS supercharger and 50k miles clean title with rod bearings and throttle actuators already done for only $30k flat. I know the hard top convertibles weigh significantly more but it’s absolutely justifiable with a straight pipe S65 sound going straight to my eardrums❤️
Love the review! Very informative and as a Mercedes-Benz owner previously Jaguar they are both great cars. That Ftype though is a screamer!
I’d take a Lexus LC500 over these any day.😊
You can put a supercharger to the Lexus and can go crazy
🤣
Snore
One of the greatest cars ever made
But the grill is so ugly 🤢 can't stand Lexus' grill designs
That jag interior is from 2008, its so bad.
Nah keep your dumbass touchscreens to yourself. I don't want that gay shit on my car
Neva saw a video of u. But i will stay and watch more👍🏻
10:47 i like how you changed the lighting and contrasts to make the amg pop more lol 😂😂😂
The F-Type. Truly compelling. Like your videos.
That said my dream cars all come with a manual. Because paddles are for canoes. Yeah I coined that.
And yes I put my money where my mouth is, so don't blame me if manufacturers kill off the few remaining options to row your own gears.
The last two cars I bought- available only with a six speed manual.
Jaguar and Mercedes, not to mention Ferrari, Lamborghini, Corvette etc. have lost the enthusiast plot.
Pity.
So we get heavier, less involving cars needing more power to compensate.
Sonewhere between a spartan Lotus Elise and a sumptious Bentley Flying Spur is the sweet spot of engagement and livability.
It is sitting in my garage.
I recently bought a 2016 F-Type 3.0S coupe, manual transmission. Nor a supercar but a beautiful car with a wonderful sound. The manual F-Types are quite rare, you have to really want one to get one, mine was 2,000 miles away.
@@3ducs They are special for sure. Glad you found one.
If 'nobody is buying manuals' how come they are in more demand and get higher prices in the enthusuast market? Try finding a Ferrari F430. 360, 355, or Audi R8 manual and then compare pricing to the much less expensive ones without that gated manual.
The fact Honda sold every Type R and SI it made- without any transmission option other than a six speed manual speaks volumes.
2,000 miles is a long way to go. Much respect.
As a Jaguar Land Rover employee, (accountant in product development) I can say that even we employees are sad that it is to be no more. A lot of us stop and stare when one drives by even off the factory floor. They have a presence that sadly won’t be replicated. It’s an unfortunate sign of the times when the Greta’s of the world spoil the enjoyment of the petrol head. Great video 😊
Your right sad indeed but many other companies are not following jaguars lead , combustion cars are not going away, I think Jaguar is making a fatal error here
My fav car review channel🤝🏽 good job brotha
