Hi!
Thank you and everyone for your reply!
So, if I understand you properly, the opportunity of using
Android/Apple car, let's say, depends on the screen? If it has a buttons - it's the old one without this thing, and if it has no buttons - it's the new version of infotainment system with Android/Apple auto?
Yep! The buttons are replaced by extra bits of screen. Personally, I'm a fan of buttons as they can be found and operated without having to look at the screen - I'd rather see where I'm going as much as possible. In my previous XKR I couldn't even operate my seat heaters if I had the satnav going - the F-Type, thankfully, has physical controls for that. ;)

I think a MY 18.5 400 sport would be your best bet. Two reasons they are the best F type so far, but then I am a little bias, additionally they are starting to hold their valve so a good sound investment.
