New F-Type owner (Germany)
Hi all!
I finally took the plunge this week and bought the car I've been thinking about getting for the past two years or so: an F-Type convertible with manual transmission.
It's a MY16 with about 8500 miles on it. Manual transmission F-Types are rare in Germany - currently there is only one on sale in the whole country. So I'm pretty happy, that I managed to get one and in my preferred color (Dark Sapphire/Loire Blue) no less.
Unfortunately I can't pick it up yet. Registration and all that takes a lot longer in Germany than it does in in the US. Also the dealer I bought it from is about 300 miles distant to where I live. So I'll pick it up on May 10th - until this I'll just have to hang around here... ;-)

Congratulations!
I imagine you're counting the days until you can pick up your car. I would be.
Or, you could just hang around here until you can pick up your car. LOL
