hi all

 

photos of f type r

 

Any need to pi$$ me off Alex early on a Friday with such great photo's of the car of my dreams (well nearly, it would have to be convertible, colour is correct though).

morning kenny

 

thanks

at least its not your 100% perfect car ....  yours must still be out there waiting

Lovely car Alex  B)

 

How's that wonderful noise?

Give it a couple of years for the F - Type to depreciate in price Alex and I will be straight in there. I am known to buy cars that are usually around 3 years old with very low mileage getting a good price at the same time. For example I purchased my 2000 Mercedes SL55 AMG in 2003 with 3,200 miles on the clock for £25,000 whereas the list for the car new was in excess of £40,000. I kept the car until late last year therefore owned it for 11 years and sold the car for £4000.

Therefore the car actually cost me £21,000 having had £4,000 returned. Divide £21,000 by the 11 years for which I owned the vehicle and you will note that the car cost me £1909.09 per year. Yes there were running and servicing costs but nothing to the extreme or out of the ordinary. That to me was very cheap motoring for a superbly built performance car.

How's that wonderful noise?

Listening to my brothers F - Type pulling away from my house last week the noise was superb and I wanted to batter him :-)

noise is unbelievable especially with the tuned button on

 

even my Subaru driving son in law (27) was blown away

 

no wonder they call the badge "Growler"

Very nice, you picked the best body version with the coupe. As you know, the handling on that car is sublime, wait til you try the awd..... Unbelievable
