Hi everyone,
Very excited to be picking up a F-Type v6s convertible for my 30th birthday next week - I’ve wanted one since I hired a v8 convertible on holiday for a couple of days in Cape Town 3 years ago, and have been working towards it since! I was sold on the engine noise with that exhaust open, makes me a very happy man.
It’s an older car (2013) with just over 20,000 on the clock, but it’s in good condition and looks the nuts. I want to use it as a daily driver hence the v6. It’s got the performance seats in ivory which I was very keen to have, and the gunmetal wheels which are unusual as far as I can tell look fantastic irl
It’s replacing my first car (Hyundai Coupe Siii 2.0) so it’s a massive leap of an upgrade! Little bit worried about the transition so will be driving like a granny for a while.
I was wondering what people thought about warranties on the car- it’s 21k miles and Just turning 5 years old. Dealer has done the service and first mot before my pick up. They’re pushing to get the platinum 3 year from RAC (£1k) has anyone got any experience with this?
Also I’ll be getting it finished / detailed and ceramic, likely with cartech products. My dad had his Bentley GTC done and it’s always looked pristine with minimal effort - I want that!
Finally I’m in the Hertfordshire / Cambridgeshire area if anyone hails from that way re: meets etc
Cheers!
New owner! (Herts)

Hey welcome! We are often out in essex herts in pretty much your twin car, so if you want to meet up for a run out to see what she can do or to exchange notes, drop us a line. We are 3 years in and still absolutely in love - went to the coast yesterday and a cheeky run today out near ongar just to hear her roar Jess
