Description
Head-turning 'Ferrari' red. Black leather interior. Coupe with tinted glass roof. Sophisticated controls offering standard and Sport mode. Automatic gearbox supplemented with paddles to overide gear selection (I have programmed this to only operate in Sport mode - but this can be changed). A spoiler is automatically operated at 73mph and retracted at 53mph. There is an electronic control unit that allows comprehensive control of the cars configuration.
The seats are electronically adjustable and are heated. Driving positions can be stored in memory. Satellite Navigation System. Bluetooth connectivity to mobile phone - integrated into steering wheel controls. There is no CD player but the central arm rest contains a port for a USB flash memory stick that can be loaded with all of your music and is integrated into the central display.
There is no spare wheel but the car is fitted with an emergency tyre inflater with repair foam. Tailgate can be operated from inside the car; by a tailgate button; or remotely by the key. Starting the car is done without an ignition key - proximity to the key is enough and there is a start button. There are 2 keys with the car. There is an amazing amount of space in the boot - given the size of the car. This means that it performs adequately as a Grand Tourer as well as a Sports Car. This is a top marque and this car is in very good condition. I have had it serviced and maintained by North Wales Jag Centre in Llandudno - an excellent Jaguar specialist.
Including myself, there have been 5 owners of the vehicle. I bought it from Pure Cars in Wakefield - who specialise in high-quality and high-performance cars.
This is a superb sports car - absolutely fulfilling Jaguar's desire to recapture the legacy of their E-Type. The drive quality is fantastic and it can hold its head high in the company of vastly more expensive supercars. I bought this car when I decided to give up motorcycling after 60 years of riding. I wanted to make sure that I had got the motorcycling 'itch' out of my system. This has been successfully achieved. I defy anybody to 'kick down' and not grin.
You will never buy yourself a better Christmas present!
