Just (Yesterday) purchased a 2016 F Type S AWD convertible in Firesand.
I absolutely loved the colour from the first time I saw it.
Got a great deal on this lightly driven, 29,000 kilometer car that is in fantastic shape.
Looking forward to accessing the forum for reviews, tips and advice.
Now its time for a beer and to start reading up..

Welcome! You have a beautiful F-Type - you will love it for all sorts of reasons, not the least of which is that it will release your inner hooligan (!) so watch for the RCMP (it has happened to me).
A tip or two: unless this is to be a daily driver, go to Lordco and buy a CTEK battery maintainer -and use it when the car is not being driven. These cars love and need full battery voltage. When they do not get it, random, seemingly unrelated symptoms (it can be anything) can appear. There is nothing wrong with the car except that the battery voltage has fallen off. Trust me on this.

Next, consider joining the Jaguar Car Club of Victoria - despite the name, it has members from all parts of the Island, the mainland, Alberta, and Washington and Oregon across the border. And if you are a member you have access to considerable discounts; the first useful one is to buy that CTEK at Lordco.

This is a strange year because of the pandemic but normally in July this club hosts the largest Jaguar show in North America in Victoria. Cancelled this year for obvious reasons. Information at jaguarcarclub.ca
PM me if you want any further information on any if the above.
