Anyone Selling there F Type
I totally understand where you're at. I spent at least 2 years going round in circles deciding what to have (became the equivalent of a trainspotter in Granturismo terms I did so much research on that one), DB7, DB9, 360, Bentley GT, GTR. Even looked at the car clubs as I couldn't make up my mind. B...

Anyone Selling there F Type
After researching the Granturismo thoroughly (good car) and getting very close to buying one with a similar budget, then the F type coupe came onto the scene. I didn't have 4 seats but it had the looks to rival the Maserati, and the running costs by comparson were more ordinary than exotic. That's w...

An ideal choice (I would say that having chosen IRR myself). I did consider the sapphire as it looked sophisticated and the firesand but wasn't brave enough, before finally settling on a proper mid life crisis red!I did have a couple of jags with ivory seats previously and whilst they did pick up a ...

Model differences cheat sheet
When I started out on the F type hunt it was for an ex demo, I noticed that some base 15 plate autos had lower C02 emissions (199 vs 203) and road tax. I think it depends on the build date for some cars as the reg overlaps. Although I ended up going for new as the discounted price was pretty close a...

I think there's a couple of stones tracks on the Ipod somehow. We've always given our cars a name starting from a brown 1.4 Ford Escort called sluggy (it was gutless) 25 years ago. I started the naming discussion at work just after it arrived. When most of us we were all deciding if it was male or f...

I think it will turn out to be eveything you'd hoped it would be and more. Like you, the F type was the one car I just kept going back to look at. But in addition to the looks, it's the noise that it makes once you're past the running in period and sport +dynamic can be exploited properly. Not had s...

Thanks. Its been a very mild winter down here which means the car just gets filthy, not much salt in use either so the paint has survived unscathed. Only thing I found was the rear tyres would light up quite easily from a standing start in the wet or if it's a bit icy (bit of sideways drift on one o...

Tight Parking in Garage
Blimey, 47mm on each side, I had 65-70mm which I found difficult enough. I replaced the doors with sectional ones which loses the frame altogether. I can now reverse in, using the the door mirror with some of Screwfix's finest chevron tape on the floor to align the rear wheel to go in perfectly stra...
