Hi guys!
Sadly not an F-Type owner, yet, but on the hunt for one and hope to pick up at some point this year. I've been reading through these posts for about a year and have found them invaluable, some really great advice on here!
Thought I'd make an introduction before I become a pest and ask a ton of questions...

Thanks for the welcome, both.

I’m looking for an auto V6S coupe. Posted a wish list in the wanted section if you know anyone on the lookout for a buyer.

like you Joe I am new to the Marque and I am currently looking to purchase a 3.0 V6 S/C Coupe, probably 2019 production year - any tips on what I should specifically look out for.

I have seen a few on Car Gurus website but most of the good ones seem to be 200+ miles from me !! (Fife, Scotland)

That's an upside - think of how enjoyable the drive home will be! :lol:

Yep...agree.
Travel for right car.

I was lucky, ftype I bought was only 20 miles away. Went up for sale in morning, I bought afternoon.

Wife's car I had to travel 4 hrs to get ideal spec / condition.

Don't be put off with distances.
Sometimes sellers can help out too.
With wife's car...dealer picked us up from station and helped us sort accomodation.
