    A video from our roadtrip earlier this year

    For those planing (or thinking of) a roadtrip in Norway, this video might give a good impression of some of the roads and the nature. It's a long video from our roadtrip in June this year, and no speeding or racing - but very nice scenery ;) https://youtu.be/qVDmxZNdaPA

    Wheel rim choice – Diamond Cut or Powder Coated?

    I have the 20" Diamond cut Dynogynes. They were ceramic coated (as the rest of the car) just after I bought it 5 years ago (second hand one year old). The alloys still look just as new, and ride quality is surpricingly good (and even a little better after I replaced the P-zeros with MP4S this...

    Waterpump and some hoses replaced.

    On my last service a (very) minor leak in the waterpump was found. Got it replaced yesterday, and some hoses were also replaced (more as a precaution according to the service-tech). Did not cost me anything extra, as this was covered on my engine/drivetrain insurance. Happy to have it done, as I...

    Fun on ice with JLR

    Almost all the cars we drove on the ice were awd, and I really did miss the rwd. The "problem" with most of the JLR cars on the ice, is that even with esc off, the nannys still interfere when really sideways. The F-type awd not so though, BUT you do loose precision when trying to hit apex going...

    Fun on ice with JLR

    This was an event hosted by the Norwegian JLR dealer that I use (last weekend). We got to drive most of the models in various trim levels, including some SVRs. It was great fun, and very interesting :D https://vimeo.com/386719744?ref=em-share (Hope the link work...)

    F-Type Prices

    I stopped thinking what my 15 R was worth, the day after I bought it (one year old). I had found the "perfect for me" fun car, in the exact configuration that I wanted. What I was looking for was a car that challenged me when driving it, but still could be comfortable enough to be used on longer...

    Are newer F-Types quieter than their older brothers?

    The inside of the exaust tips on the newer V8's are narrower as well. Don't know why? This is how my MY15 looks. If you have one of the newer models, have a look and see the difference. The outer one: The inner one:

    New photos of the facelift plus hints.

    Hmmm..... still very curious on how they are going to improve on this look (MY15)... In my opinion they have not succeeded so far, but more the oposite...
