As the title suggests, tomorrow is the day I will be collecting my very first Jaguar and to make things better, It's an F-Type!

It is a V6S AWD Coupe in White with the beautiful performance seats!
I didn't sleep last night so I can't imagine what tonight will hold for me!

So I suppose this is a hello to all and hopefully will start to bump in to a few more owners around my patch (Birmingham,UK)!

Coming from a GT86 I'm very much looking forward to having a little bit more power as although the 86 can out do most things around the twisty's it's nice to be able to go in a straight line too!
Here she is!

Great looking F Type
I think the first thing you’ll notice on the change from the Toyota is the F’s waves of torque vs low torque high revs engine
Enjoy :)

Thank you everyone for the warm welcome!
Wow, just wow. I've driven a number of ftype's but driving for a number of hours last night was so exciting. I've hardly slept with excitement as I know she's outside waiting to be driven.
My face hurts from the permenant grin I have!
The 86 was a brilliant car as you say but it did always feel quite raucous. You had to thrash it all the time but now I can sail that wave of torque even at low revs!
The attention it gets is phenomenal, all of my neighbors came out to see it and people have stopped in the street to tell me how beautiful she is.
Oh, how lucky we all are!
