nice work Dazarooni - i know how excited you must be - you're going to love it

I have my work van which I use 4-5 days of the week. The F-Type will be used on my off days so shouldn't be too harsh with fuel costs.

Same here. Novelty never wears off. I bunk off early on Friday (self-employed too). Take covers off, it’s like Christmas/Birthday every weekend!

Enjoy Dazarooni. I’ve just joined the F-Type Enthusiasts Club (I love clubs). Seems a really friendly setup with loads of meets, days out etc. They have stuff going on nationwide. Some lovely, like-minded, fellow owners out there

Try exhaling occasionally over the next fortnight. It will help!

Ha ha, I have a LOT of cars to get detailed for customers over the next two weeks so that will stop me from passing out with excitement!

I'll definitely look into these F-Type enthusiast clubs, always good to meet like-minded folk.

Another club which your car qualifies for and tbh is the best £200 odd I've ever spent car wise is Supercar Owners Club, I belong to a few Jaguar clubs too but if you like other marques as well this one IMHO is the best with a lot of exclusive tours, drives and behind the car industry visits.

Yes the whole depreciation thing with the F-Type is incredible isn't it? Not far off 40k depreciation in this case!

Mine was just over that, £108k new I paid just over £60k for it.

Just did a search of your posts to see your car and it looks great! I'll be sure to post pics when I pick it up. Gonna be 2 weeks or a bit more.

Thanks very much, they are great cars (well apart from the squeaky seat;)).

I'm beginning to feel even more special now given the very high end cars on that list! Definitely would consider joining - thanks for bringing that club to my attention.

I'm surprised you could hear the squeaks over that explosive exhaust note?

Just spoken to the selling dealership - the car was due its first service back in September but because of the extremely low mileage, the previous owner never bothered to get it done. So, the dealer has had it serviced and that means I don't have to pay for its second service until this time next year.

You might want to check if the delayed service might void future warranty - just to be shure.

I have heard JLR might be rather strict if the car has not followed the service intervalls.

I contacted the local Jaguar dealership and they said there shouldn't be any issues.

Dazarooni, you say your a car valeter, where are you based?

[Dazarooni]

It's detailing I do - I'm in Dundee. I don't really do basic valeting stuff. It's a full day (or 2 in some cases) working on a car removing swirling and scratching, making them look as good as possible.
