Default Re: F-TYPE Jaguar Prototype Makes Public Debut At Goodwood

There's a few more pics available here: http://www.wikicars.biz/news.php#!co...rticle&pno=105. These look to be the high performance variants - one has quad exhaust pipes and the other has twin exhausts, so I'm guessing one has the 3.0-litre supercharged V6 and the other has a 5.0-litre supercharged V8.

I guess we'll know more in a few days.

Further to yesterday's post, looks like the F-Type has been officially launched: http://www.wikicars.biz/news.php#!co...rticle&pno=107. The V8 S sounds blisteringly quick (0-100 in 4.3 seconds), but I get the feeling there could still be an 'R' version in the works.

Not seeing anything on GoAuto or The Motor Report yet...

I think the Ford content in JLR is less and less per new model, but some items are still from Ford,,,,,,,for now.

Still you really have to scratch your head at the fact that Ford never made a dime out of JLR, yet Tata are making billions out of them.

Well done Jak Nasser, how did u get that all wrong?

Lighter than a GT-Rspec, more powerful on paper than a GT-Rspec, only .2 seconds quicker to 100kmh. What the.. ?

Looks better : Valid point, but an FPV is no Jag though.
