    Vehicle history check (SimpleR)

    If SimpleR would be so kind to help with a history check for vehicle reg M777 JGP that would be great. A customer of mine has just purchased this car and Pentland JLR are being useless and not providing any information!

    If you were to sell your F-Type, what car would you get?

    With valuations being so high at the moment, some have decided to cash in and sell their F-Type. If you were to sell yours, what would you get as a replacement? For me and my 66 plate R AWD - If I were to sell mine I would have a LOT of equity. However, I am not tempted in the slightest to...

    All F-Type models from 2016 to forget dynamic mode on startup

    Bulletin H239 attached with affected models and VIN range. This was applied to my car today at JLR Pentland Dundee without warning when my 66 plate AWD R went in for a service. I am sick to death of their dreadful customer service. They should have told me this was going to be applied but...

    Facelifted F-Type R no faster than pre-facelift

    Interesting article from CarandDriver - https://www.caranddriver.com/reviews/a33305317/2021-jaguar-f-type-r-coupe-by-the-numbers/ They tested the facelifted F-Type R and 0-60 registered 3.5 seconds. 1/4 mile 11.7 seconds. They said the stats are identical to what they got from the 2015 F-Type...

    Low battery issue after first MOT and health check.

    My car will be 3 on 1 September. It is a 66 plate F-Type R AWD. On Wednesday, I took it to the local JLR dealer just 15 mins down the road and it flew through the MOT and the health check identified nothing. The car has done 7650 miles. So, I drove it home and put it in the garage. At night...

    2nd service coming up for F-Type R AWD (prices in Scotland)

    Got a Jaguar dealership recently opened just down the road (4 miles) but willing to travel further afield if worth it. I read on an older thread that Taggarts in Motherwell were keenly priced. My 2 nearest Jaguar dealers are in Dundee and Perth (both part of the John Clark group so pricing will...

    23 hour detail on my 66 plate F-Type R AWD

    As some of you will remember - I picked up my 66 plate F-Type R about 6 weeks ago. I have been so busy with my work which involves detailing other people's cars, I hadn't had time to do my own. So I kept an eye on the forecast and left 3 days free for Mon - Wed of this week. The car had a lot of...

    F-Type R ownership, 1 week in...

    So it's been a week to the day that I picked up my F-Type R. What can I say? I love this car! The only niggle I had was how firm the seats were. I've been adjusting the lumbar support as the previous owner seemed to have it at its maximum setting and I'm finding it much more comfortable now. No...

    Finally picked up F-Type R

    So I picked the car up in Doncaster and drove it all the way back to Dundee. The sun was out and when I saw the car my heart skipped a beat! It is the best looking car I've seen! Externally, I love everything about it. The wide skirts look great in person IMO - I certainly won't be doing a...

    Wider skirts/sills on F-Type R AWD 2016 models

    I'm picking up my white 2016 R next week and have been looking around to see what basic mods I could consider if any. I notice that the AWD R models in 2016 have wider skirts in body colour than pre 2016 models. The lower models can get these wider skirts with the optional sports design package...

    Purchasing a white F-TYPE R from Jag dealer - haggling tips please lol

    Just an update to this thread I posted a week or 2 back - https://www.ftypeforums.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=2345 The Blackberry one was sold fairly quickly - the price at the time of asking was £62k which was a little out of my price range. I've always had my heart set on a white one but when...

    Hoping to become an F-Type owner

    Hi Everyone! Over the next 4-6 weeks, I hope to purchase a 2-3 year old AWD F-Type R and had my heart set on a white one. However, a car with blackberry paint has come up and I think it looks great! I'm not normally into dark cars but this one has something about it - it doesn't hide the black...
