Lucky her, although I see you have lost the plate as it's been transferred onto another Jag. Not my cup of tea but I wouldn't object if someone bought something like that for me

That's very nice - is it black - couldn't quite tell from the video? Love the wheels. Also, what year/mileage etc?

Wasn’t the guy presenting this in Harry Potter? I did wonder that when I saw his name. Remember the time when I went on a train and the conductor was called Tom Riddle? |

That does look nice, good spec and very low mileage for the age (8k miles). Must be a 2015/2016 as it’s got the previous generation media/nav?
Pretty sure it’s metallic black.

2016, it is subject to her liking how it drives but I think the looks have sold it to her already .
Yes it’s black I believe ,which is the only negative ,pain to keep clean .

Lovely, what's not to like, apart from the boot space.

The best wheels for an F-type and it's got the performance seat and full leather upgrade...noice the spec and mileage was the deciding factor (hopefully) that and the dealer is only 30 miles away ,originally I was going for the coupe but coupes around the same price are at least 100 miles away and 3 or 4 times the mileage. |

Interesting - are the coupes worth more?

Ooooh - very nice!! Let's hope she enjoys it! Ride on some F types was criticised when it came out, I can't imagine much else being an issue.
I find the Boxster quite stiff riding personally (comfortable enough but you have to be very careful with speed humps and so on) - that's with PASM and the standard wheels with tyres having more profile than is fashionable now, and despite it riding higher than the Jag, so if she's been in your Porsches much I'm sure it will be fine....

I would be genuinely shocked if a porsche sportcar was softer than a jag. Prepare to be shocked then as the initial reviews of the F type (in S form) said exactly this - but it has not come up as much in recent years so I wonder if they softened them. Will be interesting to see your thoughts anyway, though you are at the "GT" end of Porsches usually, not the cooking ones. I just watched Voldemort's video and the car is lovely - a fantastic colour/seat combo, she's a lucky lady!! Given some of the stuff you have owned, I'll be interested to see what you think of it... |

That looks lovely. I am sure the ride will be acceptable as long as your roads are in reasonable condition. I think the F-Type got criticism for the suspension because it wasn't the normal Jaguar magic ride of comfort and control.

I hope the ride is not too firm,the roads near me vary from brilliant to utter nightmares.I am reading some reviews but non seem to mention an issue,in some it says it isn't as sharp as a cayman but rides better and others praise the way it flows down a bumpy road .
We will see in a couple of days.

That looks exceptionally nice. Great colour combo, plus the previous owner clearly ticked just about every box on the option list.
