Thanks a lot for your answers. In case the car doesn't come with the valve exhaust, can it be installed aftermarket withot spending more than 2k in a new exhaust system?

Depending on whereabouts you live (useful info to put in your Profile) it might mean a drive or a night away, but with an F-Type that's a bonus anyway!

That sounds good, I will check if it has the valves or not! I'm from Spain (just updated on my profile) so very long trip to UK, maybe I can just buy the system from UK and install it here

I have the button as standard and really never use it. It was on my "must have" list when I was searching, but in retrospect the active exhaust and dynamic mode is all I need.

It won't be easy, you'll be missing the electronics and the vacuum system to operate the values and even if you add all that your ECU won't talk to it as it won't be programmed to know its there.

Like NavigatorNI I'm very glad to have the valved exhaust but the button for me is hardly ever used.

And I thought I was unique in the "button largely redundant" group. :lol:
