Prior to the test drive of Jaguar’s F-Type later this month, I thought I would give you a quick break down of my thoughts on the car before driving it.
What is the F-Type about? Straight from the horse’s mouth… Powerful, agile and distinctive, F-Type is a true Jaguar sports car, engineered for high performance and instantaneously responsive handling – the latest in a distinguished bloodline. Supercharged engines, lightweight aluminium body construction and advanced driving technologies deliver an experience that is intuitive, instinctive and alive. How excited am I? It’s not really worth asking. I’m massively excited about getting to review the Jaguar F-Type. I remember the first time I saw a picture of this car at the Paris Auto show last year and I stopped and thought, “That looks amazing, I would love to have a go in that”. Little did I know I soon would.
The build quality of the interior looks amazing also, it does have an Aston Martin Vantage feel, but that can only be a compliment.
Will it meet the hype? Apart from the cost being £79,985 for the F-Type v8 S, I think this car will be a rewarding car to driver, equally rewarding to the eye and for many I think it will be a car to aspire to own one day.Good job Jag, bring on the test drive!
