Hi Guys.

Thought I would finally introduce myself after picking up my dream car in July last year.

I have always been a massive rally fan (being from Wales) so I have owned a number of Subaru Impreza's. Current one being an Impreza STi WR1. Although have always loved the F-Type since seeing and sitting in one at Goodwood in 2014 I believe.

I have the coupe V6s in white with the black panoramic roof, covering 27 000 miles.

Hope you like it. :D

Andrew

Without trying to put a downer on things, me and my wife have both had some bad news over the last year or 2. So this is a little present to ourselves. :)

The pop and crackles it makes certainly puts a smile on our faces :D

Hello Andrew,

Congratulations & welcome to the forum!

Ours cars are very similar, although mine came as base model. You have great taste & imho have hit the sweet spot in colour, shape & model šŸ˜€

I owned quite a few Escorts in my late teens including this oneā€¦

Wasted on me as I couldnā€™t afford to maintain/improve it. Wanted one for my 50th but wife wouldnā€™t get in a car with harnesses so the F-Type just won outā€¦

Have tried to make it as maverick as possible without coming to her attention!

Owned mine for seven flawless years. Such a magical car, every journey is an absolute pleasure. Ignore the doomsters & enjoy all the positive attention your F-Type will receive.

If your cup of tea there are regular gatherings for F-Type & Jaguar enthusiasts. Take a look at the Jaguar Breakfast Club for example šŸ‘

Hi Darren

" Ignore the doomsters & enjoy all the positive attention your F-Type will receive."
Great advice, thanks matey.

Love the escort, wish I could afford one. Had a rally day experience for my 40th last year and absolutely loved it.

You car looks awesome, love the wheels and brake callipers too, really sets the car off. I have a nearly new set of black wheels that was part of the sale, which I might fit. May do a poll on here.

Cheers

Andrew

Welcome and what a lovely car! Great to see we share the same Centrifuge wheels. They definitely grew on me (I've only had the car for just over a month) and are easier to clean than I had expected.
