Got it on Saturday, but too busy out in it to post. Absolutely love it, couldn't be happier. Had a massive nerd moment starting it with my phone yesterday, how cool is that! (If only you could blip the throttle with your phone too , suggestion for Jag there if you're reading).

Hehe....I can relate to that OB123....but I am beginning to think that most F-Types live in car parks because the majority of forum photos seem to be taken in car parks....Not the most inspiring backdrops for showcasing such an emotive looking car, but then again, they are worth practicing in !
Looking great Grasshopper!

Thanks chaps! Photo taken from the dealership car park after a quick spin round the block. When I get the chance to park somewhere more interesting I'm sure some pics will be taken, doubt that will get old. Car park paranoia is very much on my mind!!

That's a good combination.
On an A-road today I had the opportunity to over take a car that was doing 50 mph in a 60 mph zone. After following for a few miles a suitable opportunity came and i pressed the loud peddle and took her to 5,000 rpm for the first time (now she is run in) and WOW!!! what a noise, what a feeling, what a car!!
I'm a very happy chap. It just gets better and better !!

Yes - these cars have such a split personality - you can cruise around very comfortably and then if you put the peddle to the metal (especially in dynamic and sport) she instantly goes ballistic with noise and speed.
29,000 miles in and I haven't got tired of doing that yet - suspect I never will
Typical event the other day - was having a little blast - pulled up at the lights and the guy next to me wound down his window just to say what a great noise the jag makes and how much he loved the car - these really are special motors

It's a lovely thing, congrats and welcome to the club.
The manual says 2000 mile run in, I did 1000 and decided that was sufficient. To be honest though the best bit is taking it to 5000 revs and just coming off the throttle, those exhaust crackles are amazing!!
