Hi all,
Just treated myself to a 2013 F Type. Just the base model but I absolutely love it and the looks are just incredible.
I look forward to spending many hours of enjoyable driving with the summer coming up and am already enjoying various posts on this Forum.
All the best to all, Gary.

Prepare to smile a lot !! Just a little tip for you - unlike with other cars for some reason people will approach you to speak about the car and it will happen all over the place. Embrace these people with something about the car and tell them what you love about it !!! I tell them thank Bank of Dad is never shut and this is a company car for Dad Taxi - you spend a lot of time bringing up a family but the F Type is the gift you give yourself !!

Based on my previous car history having people wanting to talk about my car will be a new experience😀
Half way through the owners manual at the moment learning about the car but think I might ditch it and just read the posts in this Forum, far more interesting😁
Cheers for all the replies guys, making a newbie feel very welcome.

Welcome aboard. Lovely colour (I may be slightly biased here) and I like the no. plate too. I'm sure you'll love the experience, as we all do.

Welcome Gary, enjoy the open air! You really will find lots of people, young and old, coming up to talk about/compliment the car. You’ll also see other owners waving/flashing headlights at you!

Welcome Gary.

I’m a year and a half (Where’s that time gone!!!!?) in to owning the 2014 coupe version of yours (same colour, alloys etc). You’ll love it mate. They’re amazing to drive, lovely sound, you get the Ferrari attention at a fraction of the cost and it can still be driven as a daily if you want to.

As for this forum, I’ve been on many different ones over the years and have to say this is the best I’ve come across. Genuine people all with the same passion and all incredibly friendly and helpful I’ve found.

Enjoy the open roads and summer!!

Cheers

Shaun
