Finally made the leap!

Hi All,

After a few months of searching I have finally put a deposit down on a Loire blue 2015 ftype v6 S.

Can’t wait to collect it, looking forward to posting some pictures and hopefully going to a meet or 2. Based in Suffolk and spend time between here Norfolk and Kent so possibilities for various meets if they happen.

Ed

Welcome to the club,
I'm sure you'll soon be disturbing the Suffolk wildlife with that v6 howl.

I think most of us have suffered from this in the first year.

Welcome and enjoy.

I’m nearly two years in and still smile every time I drive it.

Photos please.

Afraid so,I did my nearside ones within a few weeks, learnt my lesson.

Thanks guys.

Hopefully get some pictures soon, waiting on a collection date at the moment.

I’m coming from an XKR so hopefully a little smaller and hopefully less risk on the wheels, but thanks for the heads up

V6s Same as i got back in August. Great car with plenty performance for the road. Enjoy when it arrives.

I came from an XKR, and while the F-type is about a foot shorter it is actually a liitle wider than the x150 XKR, so watch those wheels!
But you will get better mpg, which surprised me as I expected the 550PS engine to be less frugal than the 510PS XKR lump. So, I downsized to a smaller, more economical car!

 

[EdwardRW8]

I’ll bear that in mind thanks SCM.

Collecting Sunday so I will post some pictures shortly after.

Collected today. In love with the colour... the car is incredible and that exhaust in the m25 tunnels is something else!
