Simone. In my opinion, this F Type is the loveliest looking Jaguar since my [THEN] near new Jag XK- 'E Type' Coupe in the mid Sixties. It too had all disks, limited Slip Diff., a heart-vibrating exhaust note, all independent susp, etc. & on the straight, was probably faster than some of the training planes I'd flown. I still believe I retain the record for the ultra winding 'Clyde Mountain' 3500foot ascent from Moruya to Braidwood & onto Canberra. The layout of the cockpit of your 'F Type' is beautiful, but like my 'E Type' even seems to lacks space for a child capsule. Thanks again. Your test drive has made an old man very happy.
What I learned watching this video... 1) She's hot. 2) Australians pay a ridiculous amount of money for cars. That's literally 2x what it costs in the USA.
I live in Dubai and Iam 19 y/o. I love my 2018 3.0l V6 S, I’ve got the quicksilver sport exhaust system upgrade and it sounds even better than it does stock. I’ve also got a 500hp tune on it recently and its really fast now 😂
I have a 2017 S AWD just like this, except mine is in Firesand. I’ve done 20,000 miles in it and not once have I noticed any heat from the centre exhaust when opening the tailgate. 🤷♂️
0:14 This also applies to the Mercedes SLS AMG, noted as a "zeriouss rwace car, Englischer! Don't drreive viss your schoess on!" by Jeremy Clarkson on Top Gear. Also like the Top Gear-styled British accent impression at 3:04
The subtalties of foreign currency movements were never a strong point for our US friends. The vast majority of them believe there is only 1 dollar in the world, well guess what, Australia has one too and it has a deferent value to the US one
Ben' you old dinosaur......what the heck is wrong with having two more gears, and less power loss (and wasted fuel) ? I would like to see someone try and change gear quicker and smoother in a manual; most people cannot change gear(s) properly anyway. A ZF Box is awesome, smooth faster & better fuel economy as a bonus.
@@bobbarrett2631 All that doesn't matter! ZF (and any automatic) box is welcomed in a luxury limousine - a sport car is about connection and control and then manual is the king!
51k miles. No issues....5y. Great cars. Equal to a Porsche in reliability frankly and nicer seats, looks, and sounds. It may only be 98% of the track car the 911 is, but on the street it is actually better. Had a 996tt....so I can say this....and the new 911 got even fatter.
I live in the states. Free services for 5y..then it is what it is...but that "is" is less than Porsche or frankly BMW, Mercedes, and Ferrari....the spark plugs are a pita to get to though....under the supercharger. The rest is average. My mechanic says the bolts and such exude quaility and durability - way more than current competitors.
A weaker engine than the V6 is an ABOMINATION! How could you put a crappy engine in a car like this?? Sad days Jaguar... Sad days... (Yes, I own a 2016 F-Type R 550HP AWD Special Edition) and I love it. Don't weaken our car by adding some pile of crap engine, just make a smaller coupe that you can add that thing too like BMW does! Great review though!
You're so damn right..... The car manufactorers have lost their game.... their passion. 4-bangers have no place in a supersportscoupe like this. CUT IT OUT!! Stupid Porsche and Jaguar....
Having driven both, I feel qualified to comment. am also very lucky to have spent a lot of time in a Group 4 Escort. My daily drive is an S4 (maybe I just love V6 alu engines?) which is very capable, but so boring; the Jaguar is not. (Go drive one :)
Simone and Jenna are my fave. But whatever happened to Martine? Don't see her anymore. She actually is the one that got me to subscribe to your channel.
I don't think many of reviews of this car making a valid point about no iPhone / android system synchronisation or whatever is the problem with it - It's a damn Jag that meant to be driven - not for checking your emails and FB messages.
Not a fan at all of the painted side skirts. Makes the car look fatter... Loved the 2014's with the side skirts black. Seems like every year they do something to change the looks ever slightly and make it look bigger... shame really. Still love this car though.
and then the Gazzo Racing Supra was released with as much style, better performance, more practicality and 150k cheaper. Really like the shape of this Jag but the price seems beyond ridiculous. I would be hard pressed to pay 130-160k for such a car
Thanks for the suggestion Dhanil. We are aiming to be doing some comparison reviews in the coming months. So watch this space :-) and feel free to suggest comparisons and cars you want to see reviewed.
Simone, did you introduce earlier any MacLaren Models like 540C or 570GT or a GT?? If you show and present a Jaguar i think it would be fair to show one of these or all of them! But beware! You will fall in love for sure, you will get addicted about MacLaren!
Would you consider adding comments about comparative cars to your reviews? For example, I think the Porsche Cayman or the BMW Z4 are competitors, I think. (You must be tired of reading this, but you are gorgeous. )
Hi Doug, thanks for the question. Our Producer is about 6'3" and he found it rather comfortable. His only issue was, he had to put the seat right back which meant the leather rubbed against the back fabrics of the car and made a squeaking noise while driving, which was a little annoying.
The new F-Types for this year have thinner race style seats so they don't rub the back of the cabin and give you more room too. On the older models the squeaking goes away pretty quickly, as they did on mine - so if you are buying used get it from a tall person ;-)
A beautiful tall dark and British woman who likes that cozy cars with a tiny trunk. As If that weren't enough, you can get a 2017 F4 for 35k if you look around a bit. What a stunning deal :-)
Is it possible that everything is a reason for an argument? She's not underestimating Indians. It's a market thing. Think of the Indian market and cars made there. Mostly cheaper cars aimed at practicality with price cutting features. Then think of Jaguar. Does not fit the previous description, does it? If anything, this is a compliment for the new Indian owners, since it obviously means that they are well familiar with what they own and are definitely clever since they are sticking with the quality. The same with the Chinese and Volvo. Good business moves, rather than underestimating.
Did I hear right ???? $ 200,000.00 Dollars plus ???. I have a 2007 XK Convertible,1 of 97 Winter Gold that I really enjoy, and I would be hard-pressed to have the F type over what I have. especially since mine has MORE room and gets better mileage. Somewhere along the line the F-type just doesn't sound or looks like a $200,000.00 dollar car, at least for me.... I'll be keeping what I have. thank you... And enjoy every car show I have it in......
Not "so unique" Simone. It's either "unique" or it's not "unique". If you subscribe to everything being 'unique' because, in car terms, it's number 4362 vehicle of that exact model including extras, colour, inclusions etc., yes it's unique. So in this sense, everything is unique. Yet, nothing is unique, because, like the car, it was 4362, but it was still a Jag of this model. So like everything else, the Jag is not unique, in that there is/was a production 'run' of this model. I wouldn't make a point of this, but in as much as I understand you attained you HSC/VCE at 99.98, you are a genius, that is an intellectual outlier of the highest calibre. From an old pilot who, in the nineteen sixties owned a new Jaguar E-Type XKE and loved every minute of it, second only to 'the cockpit' of aeroplanes.
Indian ownership huh? So what? An Indian company is capable of owning one of the biggest automotive company in the world. And here is Australia, who is just capable of criticizing others and nothing more. What else can you expect from ex-cons.....
yea ... just like BMW ! high pressure fuel pump failures .. spot weld failures on the Z3M roadster .. main bearing shells spinning on my Z4M ... water in the roof motor on my Z4 .. sticky steering on the z4 steering racks .. X3 BMW rear screen washer disconnected and filled the whole car with water ... oh one last thing crappy VW cheats and liars with their emission scandal .. rest my case ...
Simone. In my opinion, this F Type is the loveliest looking Jaguar since my [THEN] near new Jag XK- 'E Type' Coupe in the mid Sixties.

What I learned watching this video...
1) She's hot.
2) Australians pay a ridiculous amount of money for cars. That's literally 2x what it costs in the USA.
Love mine. Boot on the coupe if you ditch the spare for the repair kit is ample for most day to day use
Wow the girl is so beautiful I learned nothing about the car. I can't remember a dam thing and I own one!
same here! love the car.. that review was terrible but no one really cares lol
I live in Dubai and Iam 19 y/o. I love my 2018 3.0l V6 S, I’ve got the quicksilver sport exhaust system upgrade and it sounds even better than it does stock. I’ve also got a 500hp tune on it recently and its really fast now 😂

The F-Type V6 is not lightweight at all! It's one of the heaviest sports cars at this price!
I just discovered this channel. Love it!

There's something about her microphone that i can't stop looking at.
Lowel Abala Me too lol
1:39 those are 20 inch. You can tell by just looking at them or if you know anything about the F-type.
Who came here to see the chick rather than the car?
definitely not, f-type over any women lol
@@Dethocus yea ur a virgin
$230,000.00? What the fuck! in the US this car is on only $75,000.00
Such Things lmaoo imagine paying $200k for a Jag
The subtalties of foreign currency movements were never a strong point for our US friends. The vast majority of them believe there is only 1 dollar in the world, well guess what, Australia has one too and it has a deferent value to the US one
Absolutely stunning , the car looks goo too.
So difficult to focus on the car.
What a stunning presenter! 😍
(Yesss, the car is nice too...)
I’m embarrassed about these comments, it’s woman doing a half decent review of a car, just listen to what she says about the car, or not.
Sorry for being heterosexual human males with a pulse
@@luclapierre7621 Being heterosexual human male with a pulse isn't about having brain functions in the region of the penis.
Quite a lot of style here...
Yet my choice is the smaller V6 RWD and proper manual gearbox - that's how sport car should be spec!
Ben' you old dinosaur......what the heck is wrong with having two more gears, and less power loss (and wasted fuel) ?
I would like to see someone try and change gear quicker and smoother in a manual; most people cannot change gear(s) properly anyway.

I knock my 2017 S AWD over into sport mode and then use the stick as a sequential shifter.
that looks totally awesome inside one out ...
nice review 👍👍one of the best looking cars out there. i wonder how reliable this jag is??
Entering my 3rd year with one. Still feels solid and no problems so far. In fact probably going for the SVR next year.
51k miles. No issues....5y. Great cars. Equal to a Porsche in reliability frankly and nicer seats, looks, and sounds. It may only be 98% of the track car the 911 is, but on the street it is actually better. Had a 996tt....so I can say this....and the new 911 got even fatter.
Watching from Barbados she is beautiful.
Anthony lawrence yeah.. both the car and the reviewer..
BIM! My home
Simone! I couldn't see the car for you! ❤
The 2.0 four cylinder is epic .
looks very damn good im in love.oh yeah the car is nice also.
2:18 THANK GOD, you finally use HP like normal people.
Q: Is it extremely expansive regarding; maintenance/spare parts availability in the US. I live in the states.

Nice review. Time to win the lottery
That's the only way you have a chance of getting either!

Stupid Porsche and Jaguar....
Jaguar Landrover is owned by Indian now. you can expect 1.6 litre F type coming out soon for dirt cheap
I own a F Pace S with the big V6 SC and agree with you. Good pull, even great from the powerplant ..... but room for lots more ......
what makes it a special edition
Christopher Clarke Not everyone wants a big engine like yours.
Having driven both, I feel qualified to comment. am also very lucky to have spent a lot of time in a Group 4 Escort. My daily drive is an S4 (maybe I just love V6 alu engines?) which is very capable, but so boring; the Jaguar is not. (Go drive one :)
Can you do a review of your self?
Pricing makes sense here in the UK but no way is this car worth more than 200k! Ridiculous.
nothing wrong with liking the smaller one luv
Simone and Jenna are my fave. But whatever happened to Martine? Don't see her anymore. She actually is the one that got me to subscribe to your channel.
Beautiful car and beautiful presenter.
That car was for Amelia to review !
Simone did great! Wonderful review! :D
All ladies do a great review job on this channel!!! And all are really good looking!
The review was great but it's Amelia's dream car. ( should have put a sad face emoji on my first comment ) Apologies to Simone x
I was expecting Amelia to review it...she was telling us she is hoping to get to review her favorite car in her F-Pace video... ;-(
Im here for Amelia!
Oh my god, I'm in love! The lady isn't bad either.
I doubt she meant 'Indian ownership' as an insult but more so that a 'change in ownership' didn't affect the overall production.
When the Americans owned Jag, it was under American ownership.
Gorgeous bodywork
heh
The F-Type Jag looks very good too.
Hi. Why Jaguar dont build a new XK?
Btw, good review!
CarNews this is the replacement to the xk-r
Jaikar Chatha no it's not, this is smaller. XK was bigger and sister to Aston Martin.
I don't think many of reviews of this car making a valid point about no iPhone / android system synchronisation or whatever is the problem with it - It's a damn Jag that meant to be driven - not for checking your emails and FB messages.

Lovely car, but can't get over the build and paint issues.
She's a beauty...car isn't bad either.
I wish you guys enter into comparison between cars...
Thanks for the suggestion Dhanil. We are aiming to be doing some comparison reviews in the coming months. So watch this space :-) and feel free to suggest comparisons and cars you want to see reviewed.
CarTell.tv yes for sure.. My pleasure :)👍

Jaguar makes nice cars but i never long for one
It's not a 2017 because it has a old system, new have In Control Touch
I take it sally ..sent it to me soon ...😄🐸
Review the svr
Would you consider adding comments about comparative cars to your reviews? For example, I think the Porsche Cayman or the BMW Z4 are competitors, I think. (You must be tired of reading this, but you are gorgeous. )
How is the car for a guy that is 6' 3" tall? Is it a good fit?
Hi Doug, thanks for the question. Our Producer is about 6'3" and he found it rather comfortable. His only issue was, he had to put the seat right back which meant the leather rubbed against the back fabrics of the car and made a squeaking noise while driving, which was a little annoying.

Here come the "Does she come with the car?" comments.
No...I'm going to abort the first comment that came into my head.
Do you retain any of the information you read from the cards?
A beautiful tall dark and British woman who likes that cozy cars with a tiny trunk. As If that weren't enough, you can get a 2017 F4 for 35k if you look around a bit. What a stunning deal :-)
Australian, not British. Yes, I'm Aussie

BMW x1 review pls
Thanks, NinjaDust77, I will pass that request on and hopefully, it makes it to the review list this year.
95% commenters are lonely unnatractive fat guys, only 5% came to see the car...
Very nice ! Cool 😎!
Did I hear right ???? $ 200,000.00 Dollars plus ???. I have a 2007 XK Convertible,1 of 97 Winter Gold that I really enjoy, and I would be hard-pressed to have the F type over what I have. especially since mine has MORE room and gets better mileage.

Stunning, shes beautiful! Oh,the cars cool.
Are you Australian mate ???
Yer baby.
I was pissed when the svr lost to a gtr.
Jaguar 💖
Fantastic body -- that goes for the car too...
Great review, sorry Amelia
She is SMOKING
I'd like to be your microphone
Cool Car n I Love Jaguar
You can ride that I'll stick to the svr
Beautiful, in every sense :)
I like the car. I love you!
My -GTA- semi brought me here.
What?! What's wrong with being sexy? Oh "sexist!"...gotcha.
1L engine oil/ 100KM? Look at that exhaust pipe, lol.
She pretty
If all girls in Australia are so damn attractive , beautiful and smart I'll have to immigrate tomorrow! 8-)
They're not - please stay wherever you are lol

Cool ! Minus the stupid door handles.

I've never seen a black Aussie :/ omg I'm leaving South Africa with the rest of the people now :D
There's thousands and thousands
pure shape - lady and car XXX
"The Brits have always known how to make a gorgeous car"....Now they just have to learn how to make a reliable one!
yea ... just like BMW ! high pressure fuel pump failures .. spot weld failures on the Z3M roadster .. main bearing shells spinning on my Z4M ... water in the roof motor on my Z4 .. sticky steering on the z4 steering racks ..

Simone doin a english accent. French next please!!
AUSTRALIAN lady
She said "beautiful knobs".
Who would want the 6 instead of the 8 definitely not effspot
Allen Saunders 6 Supercharged is the best package dynamically since the V8 is heavier at the front and less efficient
🔥
Nice car Expensive tho..
I have no idea what the car looked like.
beautiful girl and car
Great!☆
I wish I was a microphone
The booots !!
