The new Jaguar F-Type is dominating the news these days and rightly so. We waited too long for this car to come around, and we are glad to report that it is even better than the highest expectations. The F-Type is by no means perfect, but it is utterly brilliant at everything that matters; looks, sound, power, and quality. It’s got the lot.
Here’s a very nice in-depth review of the F-Type, courtesy of XCAR, which also includes a brief history lesson on Jaguar’s sports cars. This is a must watch:
