Default First Jag

Really never seriously considered a Jaguar until the introduction of the F-type. Looked at the convertible, but the trunk (boot) space was totally insufficient for trips. We were looking at the new Corvette and a few other vehicles. Last April we spent 3 weeks wandering around the UK. While visiting Canterbury we noticed the Jaguar dealer in town, went in, and were able to examine the new F-type coupe. In addition to the absolutely stunning design, it offered significantly more luggage space. We emailed our local Jaguar dealer and told him we wanted to order a new coupe. We have owned a lot of performance vehicles but this is the first one that my wife actually urged me to buy. I attached a photo of one of my other toys. Not nearly as civilized as the new Jag.

Civilized is overrated! I like your other toy.
Congratulations on your new Jaguar.
