Haven't been on the forum in a while and thinking of selling my 2017 SVR.
I'm in Denver. Any interest?
Mods in signature.

 

Definitely selling. What's the most productive way of selling a modded, perfect cond 2017 SVR with 7k miles? I'm in Denver, CO. Thoughts?

 

Probably a local listing first. You can also try Vroom or Carvana online and see what they offer. I got above trade in and slightly below retail for my Benz C300 a few years ago on Carvana. Not sure how mods affect their offers tho as my car was pretty much stock.

 

Remember to post it here on the Marketplace.subforum. A lot of folks looking to upgrade from other Jag models.

 

I’m a big fan of the F Type SVR sound and speed, but also a fan of the Project 7. What are your thoughts on an SVR with a project 7 body kit (decals:exterior features). Of course I’d keep the SVR badging however.

 

Bring a Trailer and Doug Demuro's "new" auction site, ie new, and newer model cars: https://carsandbids.com/

I'm going to say as they say on Keith Martin's Sports Car Market.... Hold this car.
The SVR just got discontinued.

At least wait til October when the new Bond film is out and people want badass cars as a post-pandemic treat. =)

 

After selling my F-Type R back in October, it took 6 months to finally locate an SVR with the color combination and options I desired. Purchased this 2017.5 vehicle from an upscale dealership in Florida a few days ago and drove her back home to Maine. Was meticulously maintained by it's previous owner and was part of his extensive car collection and only had 5400 miles when I picked it up. Thanks to Ron Mcintyre and his excellent staff at Scarborough Jaguar for welcoming me home and taking care of my State Inspection and downloading the Jaguar Remote App for me. Am so happy to no longer have to clean brake dust of my rims!

 

She’s a beauty Jim—STUNNING! Congratulations and God-speed.

Looking forward to seeing you and your new ride soon.

Best regards (and thanks for the sneak-peek),
Jay

 

Thanks my fellow Mainer! Due to the wisdom and unselfish sharing of F-Type knowledge by yourself, unhingd, scm, lizzardo, Oz, Mbourne and Therock88 to name a few, I was encouraged to purchase my second Jaguar and I plan to hang on to this one for a long time!

 

Congrats! Your SVR was near the end of the model year production run and it was the last 2017 SVR built for the US.

 

^ Thanks and I appreciate the insight. The car received plenty of attention on the 1700 mile trip back to Maine and I did not see one F-Type of any version during the entire journey which does put all of us in a very select group!

 

Ftyperegistry, how where you able to determine my car was the last SVR built for the US in 2017 without the VIN? I can tell you that it was purchased at Jaguar Sudbury (Boston) and the original owner is just a drummer in a rock and roll band! Legendary band at that.

I was able to identity it because yours is the only 2017 Glacier White SVR Coupe with CCB and red interior in the US. I have the VINs of all the SVRs produced. Attached is a screenshot partially showing the last ~30 on the spreadsheet. Unique interior color combinations and features such as red interior and carbon ceramics are easy to identify because there are usually only a handful or one of each color palette.

 

Legendary Boston Band your say? Hmmm. J Geils, Aerosmith, the Cars,......Boston? The world wonders! Do share.

 

You've got your classic Boston rock bands down! It was actually Joey Kramer of Aerosmith who's a huge "car guy" and the dealer didn't tell me until after I purchased the car which I thought was very professional. He shipped the SVR and a used McLaren to the dealer in Florida and had a new McLaren loaded for the return trip to his estate in Texas. He actually purchased the SVR primarily for his wife Linda and the vehicle was in showroom condition. I was the first potential buyer to inquire about the car and was informed that it was still in transit and was promised photos once it arrived. The Naples Motorsports staff was excellent throughout the entire process and the Jaguar was probably the least expensive car on their lot and in the showroom!

 

And one of the rarest!

 

Having been born and raised in Hyannis on the Cape I do know my classic Boston bands......Aerosmith is one of my very favorites but of course having seen Boston as a youngster when they were playing small venues, yacht club dances and “dancing in the streets of Hyannis” I almost couldn’t avoid the obsession!

Your new toy is a beauty and it’s nice to know another Ftype will be helping to enliven the streets and highways of Maine.

 

I *don’t* know my Boston bands, but we had ‘Til Tuesday play at a party in my fraternity near Kenmore Sq, before they made it big.

 

What can you tell me about my new ride? It’s a 2020 SVR in Velocity Blue

2020 F Type SVR (Velocity Blue - Matte)

F Type Interior

 

I can tell you it looks great.
