Cool New hopeful owner

Hello everyone,

I've recently been bitten by a bug and am looking for my first Jag, an F-Type. I come from owning (most recently) an older Impreza WRX STi, and before that a late model Toyota Celica GT-S, and Mazda RX-7 FC.

I haven't driven a RWD in quite a while, and never one with this much power - I hope I can adapt, haha. I guess my first real post will likely be some buying advice, but overall I look forward to happy times as an owner and a member of the forum.

Cheers!

Best two pieces of advice:
  1. Find an X152 with a full service history
  2. Have a PPI performed

Thank you everyone, for the warm welcome!

@Norri I haven't gotten one yet, although I did test drive a very nice F-Type R yesterday. As I'm leaving the country for a bit next week, I'm hoping that there will be more of a selection in late september when I get back. What a car though! I think I'm in love.
