Default First F-Type




Got my first F-Type a few days ago, haven't driven it yet (wife's car ), 'bout to though while taking the cat to the cattery (is that an omen? ).


I see the chief designer of the F-Type was Ian Callum, he used to design for Aston (did the DB9) and in fact was designing for both Aston and Jaguar at the same type. Turns out he was born in the same place my Mum was born, Dumfries Scotland.

I was going to say you have a fast wife, but you might take that the wrong way.


Awesome car. Hope she lets you drive it sometime.

I'd think that the NZ countryside would be perfect for the f type. And I like your other car choice - the supercharger whine from the falcon is just insane, really my cuppa.

Lovely looking car. Is it a V6 S? Little hard to tell from the photo and angle.
