Evening all,
I’ve been taking in a lot of information from this forum over the last couple of weeks since I bought my first F Type and I’m looking forward to asking loads of questions and maybe contributing a little. I picked up a V6s British design edition from matford jaguar in Essex. I mention the dealer because I live 300 miles from the dealership and Tim Hart in sales was a big help throughout the buying process. Anyway, I still can’t quite believe I own an f type and find myself looking out the window quite often when I’m working from home. It puts a smile on my face every time :D

She’s only got 8000 miles on the clock and comes with a full service history. As you’d expect she’s in great condition and the only minor gripe is the swirls in the paintwork. As she’s a keeper I’m investing in a minor correction followed by gtechniq crystal serum ultra, exo 4, wheels protected, interior done etc.

I’m really excited to see what she’ll look like after the works done and I’ll definitely post photos. In the meantime, here she is after I took her to church the other day :D

Cheers
Graham

Thanks lads,

I’m really looking forward to getting out on some trips and working out how to drive her properly. I’m coming from a Mazda mx5 - which I’ve kept - and clearly I’ll need to adopt my driving style, particularly how I use my right foot 😆

I’ll be happy too when I can get my F-type out of storage on the 12th and drive somewhere other than the supermarket!

That blue looks stunning.

If you intend to keep the car, I would suggest PPF to protect the paintwork. Serums and coatings do diddly, and these cars are gravel magnets!

Millwheel, your car doesn’t half make the cars in the background look so square!

Tel,

Yeah you’re right about the ppf but my budget couldn’t stretch unfortunately. Maybe next year 😁
