It took a while…

I started my hunt for the F type two years ago but house moves job changes all got in the way and I was resigned to waiting until the winter to find the right one. However on Thursday a lovely 2016 Jaguar F type v6 s with RWD popped up fo sale in Mansfield in carpathian grey with ivory interior performance seats, memory pack , auto fold mirrors, clean MOT history and a full Jaguar service history! So I took the decision to buy a convertible in the summer and persuaded a friend to drive me up from Surrey to collect it at the weekend.
The car was beautiful the only fault was the centre console mechanism making a noise when locking and the dealer would pay for that to be fixed locally so I bought on the day and gave the car a gentle 150 mile shakedown home.
It’s awesome I’m so pleased I bought it and think this will be will be with me for some time!
Next steps the car needs a service so will have to decide if now is the time to take it to a specialist rather than main dealer my local JLR is close in sunbury or find a good local specialist then perhaps in future add an Apple car play mod.

Lovely cat, I bought a V6S in Carpathian and it’s a stunning colour. It changes in different lights and really photographs well.
Good choice with the convertible too, you can really hear that engine & exhaust with the roof down.

Great car, congratulations 😎

I strongly recommend going to Tom Lenthall for your service needs - give them a call and have a chat to Adam.

They can also handle Jag warranty claims directly too, if the car is covered.

In the mean time enjoy the sound experience you get with the roof down!
