Hi, I've come from an Ultimate Black 2015 XE 25t Portfolio with Oyster interior that I've owned from new and I've been on the sister site xeforums.co.uk since it very first started (Hi Phil!)

I now have a 2015 Coupe V6S.

So this is very much familiar territory although I miss some of the toys the XE Portfolio had but it's got the same infotainment system. I had a reversing camera fitted as part of the deal.

And took out a warranty via AutoProtect.

Welcome to the F type crew.

We still have our XE, the controls are all the same so it's familiar territory. But you'll have noticed already the amount of attention ian F type gets, it's another level. More smiles per mile with the sound too. Doesn't ever fade, after 7 years it still has the same effect for me.

Looks lovely.
And the Turbine wheels really set it off.

Salivating, looks a gem!, likewise jumped from an XE
to the f type! So many on here that had their first experience with Jaguar is with the excellent XE, the brand, especially in F Type form is infectious :D
Enjoy 😉

My first Jaguar experience was with the even more excellent XK8, and my journey to the F-Type was via 4.2 and 5.0 XKRs!
