Jaguar F-TYPE – Jaguar E-TYPE was possibly the most beautiful sports car of its time, does the F-TYPE repeat history? Jaguar F-TYPE, first launched in 2012, is the spiritual and visual embodiment of the E-TYPE classic sports car. The F-TYPE is simply stunning in design.
From the low sloping bonnet with power bulges and vents to the rounded hatchback design with central twin exhaust pipes, its pure symmetry. I got more people stopping and looking or watching as I drove past in this car than almost anything else I have driven. People love the design.
I drove a silver P380 R Dynamic version with the silky smooth 3.0L Supercharged V6 engine that produces power of 280Kw driving the rear wheels through an eight speed Quickshift transmission. The P380 will go from 0-100km/h in 4.9 seconds and tops out at 275 km/h.
Even though I am built like a bear at 190cm tall I actually fit rather comfortably in the driver’s seat, and there is enough room for luggage for two for a weekend away.
Priced from around $199,900 as tested the F-TYPE possesses a level of sophisticated simplicity that not only pays homage to its heritage but also belies its futuristic appeal it has character aplenty.
