My 2018 to myself F-type coupe was a retirement present to myself. Bought used in January with 13,000 miles. Base 4 cylinder, British Racing Green, tan leather interior. Took forever to find one in BRG but worth the wait. Did a three week road trip of 6776 miles in June and July from North Carolina to Western Montana and a the national parks in between. Prior to that took a short drive to Florida and on that trip my wife learned how to pack the limited space trunk, so we had everything we needed for the long haul and figured we would use a laundry twice at one of the hotels. Car drew a lot of attention. We really enjoyed it and averaged 31.2 MPG. Only negative thing was during a torrential downpour on the way back through Missouri the right turn signal would not shut off. Drove the next two hours to our hotel and assumed we would need to figure it out. The next morning I checked the car out, started it and the turn signal functioned. Hasn't happened again but haven't had it in a heavy rain storm either. Sherrills Ford, NC

Welcome to the forums Barry,

Good to have you with us and to hear you are doing long road trips in the F-Type. BRG was a rare choice by original buyers. My XK is the same colour.

Follow this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/f-type-x152-72/ to the F-Type forum for help, advice and information. You can also use the US Lower Atlantic Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/u...r-atlantic-66/ to find other members in your region.

Please read the guidance for new members ( https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/n...ned-up-241802/ ) which answers many of the most frequent questions about getting started.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
