New owner for (almost) 2 months

[NaCl]

Hey all, joined the forum exactly a year ago when I started searching for my next car (I knew it had to be an F-Type)... and now I finally found it! Turns out it was the same car that I missed out on by just a few hours last year, but it found its way back on the market this year, and it was pure chance that I was browsing Autotrader that day :shock:

Been enjoying it for almost 2 months now and managed to get some drives in the last of the summer sun. Made sure to take a bunch of pictures too

Also, many thanks to simpleR and the forum members for helping me out with car history lookups. Saved me from pulling the trigger on a somewhat questionable example earlier in the year.

Looks lovely, black pack on the red makes it look so much better than chrome imo

Agreed, I think it compliments the pano roof quite nicely too

Cheers! Yep, I can't keep my eyes off it. Everytime I look back at it after parking up, it makes me grin & laugh. Got a bunch of compliments already from all sorts of people too.

I took it to my local Sainsburys on the 2nd day of ownership, and when I looked back before entering the store, I saw a chap having his picture taken next to it!

Thank you, much appreciated The location is Denbie's Vineyard in Dorking.

It's very close to the west side of the Surrey Hills, and entrance/parking is free. Loads of parking available, although I took these photos on a parking space that is on top of a small hill (no issues with scraping on approach or exit).

Just try not to bump into too many people as you walk!

All in order then, welcome to the F-Type ownership experience. One of the nice things about these cars really is all the positive reactions they get.
