So I took my F-Type home yesterday (yay! Post about that later) and from lurking the forum for a year or so, I know a couple things I should get in order to be ready.

• Mityvac for oil changes
• CTEK for battery maintenance

What else would you put in your 'New Owner's Toolkit' so to speak? Equipment, tools, quality-of-life items, etc...

 

You’ll want an oil filter wrench too. I use a torque wrench with mine.

I’m not sure if Amazon links still work correctly here, but here’s the one I and a number of forum members have gotten…

Motivx Tools MX2325-US 88.5mm / 90mm 15 Flute Precision CNC Machined Oil Filter Wrench Compatible with Land Rover and Jaguar 3.0L and 5.0L Gas Engines

How about a tire plug kit? On our 'vert, it easily hides under the trunk carpet/tray.

At least, assure that the factory tire seal glop hasn't expired.

 

I also got a 1/2” torque wrench and lug nut socket set - 92 ft/lb is the target IIRC.

 

Not sure what year F-Type you picked up, but you may want to check the bottle of tire sealant in the trunk near the battery. It may have expired. A few of us have replaced expired bottles with the Airman Unibottle found on Amazon.


Also check around the battery for the tow hook and tow hook holder. It is stored right next to the battery. They tend to go missing.

Good luck with the new ride.
