Some more photos, sorry about the leaves in the footwell and (clean!) tissues in the passenger door bin but I haven’t had time to clean it just yet (and to be honest, have no need to if a dealer is taking it!).

It may well be time to say farewell to what has been by far the most rewarding car I have owned. There is nothing I have had which matches the theatre, thrill and beauty of this car, but all good things must come to an end. It's actually "YouTube Famous" now too - check it out here. 2015...

Is anyone else thinking of going along to the British Motor Museum on Saturday 6th August for the Jaguar Breakfast Club meet? I'm guessing the F Type might be the most prevalent supercharged Jag? I'm based Hampshire/Berkshire way and wondered if there were plans for a little convoy or some...

Hi all, very odd thing just noticed with my 2016 MY V8 AWD - it gives a single metallic sounding click or tick when turning through about 90 degrees at fairly slow speed. Roundabouts seem to make it happen most, but not on all of them. Sounds like it's coming from the back. What could it be...

So, apparently I’m not asleep and having a nightmare, this has actually just happened… Washing the cars, just started to jet wash the road grime off the Jag prior to snow foaming and a huge flake of paint comes off, apparently back to the primer layer? I don’t think this is bare metal… any...

I know this is really sad, but I have a 600ml Sigg bottle I like to use in the car. It has a neoprene jacket and it keeps water nice and cold for a good while, I've had it years and I'm quite attached to it. However, the F-Type cupholders are just a little bit snug and I can forget about...

Hi all, I just got my big cat on Wednesday, a Black Berry MY16 coupe V8 with AWD. Lots of toys, but lots of miles already on her. Traded up from a BMW 435i and added some savings etc. Only done 100 miles from delivery and already in love, when can I go on a road trip?! Pics to follow…
