Hi all, Anyone want this? Link to the ebay link, but I'll give it to anyone here for free if you collect. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/114378260224 Chris

Hi all, I'm not sure if this is allowed or not in this section, I have skimmed the rules but didn't find anything specific on it! My V8S F Type is going up for auction in a couple of days on Collecting Cars (Chris Harris of Top Gear fame is one of the founders of the company!), take a look at...

Please delete.

Hi guys, Took my still relatively new V8S out for a drive in the Kent countryside yesterday, and I’m still utterly blown away by how good this car is.. it’s got everything you could ever way and then some, and that noise!!! It’s so addictive. I don’t know if I’m ever going to be able to sell...

Hi all, Was just wondering how I could get a bit more supercharger noise on my V8S, when a google came up with this. Has anyone tried one? Does it work? Easy to install yourself? Couldn't find anyone referencing it on here...

Hi all, Finally picked up a V8 today! Lovely 70 mile drive home with the roof down in beautiful blue skies with a soundtrack to match.. 9000 miles on the clock and 5 years old - feels like a new car (except the slight dashboard rattle - can't hear that much when driving as I should be!) and...

Hi all, Put my V6S up for sale on Sunday and it had sold and gone on Monday, but thought I’d post up a picture or two from the advert as I was pretty pleased with how they came out! I’ll be replacing her with an Italian Racing Red V8S the Saturday after this one coming, it’s going to be a long...

Hi all, Just wondering what the pipe routing inside a V6 (w/valves) exhaust looks like inside the back box - does anyone have any diagrams/pictures? I've got an old system with seized valves and thought about modifying it to give a bit more noise! Thanks, Chris

Spotted my old F Type on the M25 last Friday.. great to see it being used, but a little heartbreaking to see it again :( not to mention the other 400 Sport in front of it :D

Hi all, I test drove a V8R RWD convertible on Saturday, which will turn out to be a very expensive test drive.. What an unbelievable noise! I need it in my life. So, I'm looking to upgrade from my V6S, to a V8, but the big question is whether the V8R is worth the price premium over that of a...

Hi all, Have searched and haven’t found anything on this particular battery issue, so am asking the help of the experts! I have a 2013 V6S, and have had a fairly regular low battery warning message on the dash, despite charging the battery. Car quickly goes flat (a week or maybe slightly...

As a lucky employee of JLR in Solihull, I get access to a management car scheme, which sees us replace our company cars every 9-12 months or so. Today I swapped my faithful, 20k mile, completely reliable and faultless E Pace, for a Velar! The E Pace has been one hell of a car, 47 mpg average...

Hi all, I know tyres have been done to death, but I'm just after a few thoughts on what to do in my current situation, with my V6S convertible. Front tyres are near enough brand new P Zero's, rears are down to about 2.5mm (again, P Zero's), and I'm wondering what to replace the rears with...

Hi all, Just thought I'd post up as a matter of interest for the rest of you all to check on your cars. I had a flat battery over the weekend, so had to get into the car using the (how on earth can they call that a key!) key in the fob. Upon removing the trim in the boot to get to the boot I...

Hi all, Having sold my 2018 F Type V6 coupé in early October, I never thought I'd be back so soon! I've had a terrible month or so since then, with my personal life slightly falling apart, so thought I'd buy myself something to cheer myself up, and an early Christmas/birthday present to myself...
