      Of course I may be bashed for this, but I believe it has the rear look of the new Corvette Stingray (obviously the tail lights are different, I'm talking about the overall shape), and the front resembling a DB9.

    @TR7V8Mike 9 років тому +214

    Having recently looked at the Nissan GTR, Audi RS5, BMW M3, BMW M4, Porsche Cayman and the F-Type V6s, after driving one, the decision was made. Yes the German cars are more refined, but TBH quite boring in their looks (internally more than externally), the GTR would have drained every penny I had on running costs and the RS5, just didn't seem special enough for me. The Jag just stirred my inner 11 year old self, and I haven't had a car for a very long time that did that. If you can afford one, then I would seriously go check them out. They're bigger than you think for a 2-seater; tho not the boot ;) and are just incredibly enjoyable. Every time I get in I have a grin on my face. Every time I get out, after maybe another drive around the block, I have a grin on my face. Just an epic car IMO.

    Years ago there was an add where the fan belt snapped on a jag and the girlfriend slid her stocking off and it was used to replace the belt.
    Find that unwoke add.

    As the owner of a 2017 F-Type Premium here in the USA I can say Jeremy is correct on a lot of his points like the ride. I thought I had a bad tire or something because of how bad it feels at slow speeds. I got mine used at 42k miles on it. I did the alignment, the trans fluid, the differential fluid and fixed the cheap plastic bits that were going bad. Did the work myself because "Yikes" at Jaguars service and parts cost.
    Yet still the ride was wonky until I put the foot down.
    As for boot. Yeah, get the hard top if you want any sort of trunk space with no spare.
    What Jeremy failed to mention was (at least in my year) the interior has no sound dampening, cheap trim, audio sux and electric seat controls for no reason. Theres no room to really adjust it if your my height at 6ft 1inch.
    Jeremy would definitly have noticed that.
    I tuned my V6 RWD and its at 418HP.
    I got mine at $36k though. Not no $70k after tax new.

      Do you still own it? How was the maintenance. Difficult? I do all my own work as well. Issues with engine related parts at all? I've heard issues with the diff failing on these, though maybe only the v8. Electronic issues for you? How's the mpg? Any different before and after the tune? Did you need to replace shocks/struts at all? Maybe that could help the ride. And maybe they changed the ride in the later cars.

      ​@@barsaf9989Yes I still do working on my 2nd year. Some things are your typical effort to fix while some are a bit more. Recently had to replace my coolant thermostat. My V6 kept running hot at 80mph then at 75mph and then 70mph. The part is one big housing with what looks like a heat element that plugs in the bottom. Not sure. I had to remove a lot of the intake ducts and disconnect some of the Supercharger lines at the top to get access. Also the small support bracket behind the left headlight.
      The tiny water pump line that branches off the main hose is easily broken. I found a replacement and fitted the upgraded brass connector. As with most coolant return lines on the F-Type, they are brittle and cheap.
      I had issues with the battery draining and discovered that the car was not full going into sleep mode. You will know this if you lock the car and after 15 to 20 min you can still see in the window that that the hazard button is glowing and the door LED lock lights are still on. After two days it will make the car say "Low Battery Start engine"
      I have had all 4 tires replaced and I still detect the wobble. I have checked maybe 4 times all the mounts and drive train. I have inspected the hubs etc etc and see nothing to cause this.
      My only conclusion if the differential is not very smooth.
      I have changed the fluid 2 times in 20k miles. First time was to be sure it was good after I bought it. The recent was to see what 20k miles did. It was clean and looked fine. No metal shavings.

    • @MicJaguar
      @MicJaguar 11 місяців тому

      ​@@barsaf9989Forgot, so the MPG has been the same mostly. I can get 29mph all highway and about 22 to 26mpg city driving. Keep in mine I drive casual and rarely really drive aggressively.
      I did do my spark plugs and used NGK. I had a weird idle where it would seem fine but then drop and shake slightly and recover every few minutes. Even with AC off. Not enough to trip any codes or misfires.
      So I tried different gaps. First was .032 then .038 then settled at .035.
      I have the full mechanics repair PDF of like 4000 pages the dealer uses and reading through it, I found a idle speed calibration procedure which seemed to help.
      You disconnect the negative battery terminal or the entire battery for 20min. Plug back in and start the car.
      1. Let it idle, touch nothing till it reaches operating temp. Then shut off car.
      2. Restart car and idle for 2 minutes.
      3. Hold brake, put in Drive gear and hold it for 2 minutes.
      4. Then drive for at least 5 min and varying speeds to allow the ECM to calibrate.
      That's it.
      Then of course after, reset the clock and settings. Do the door window recalibration as well.
      Hope this long reply helps. 😂
