Introduced at the 2012 Paris Motor Show, the Jaguar F-Type was penned in-house by Ian Callum. Taking stylistic cues from the marque’s legendary E-Type as well as its C-X16 concept car, the newcomer struck a fine balance between muscularity with elegance. Initially available as a Roadster with a Fixed Head Coupe version being added for 2014, the newcomer was based around an aluminium moncoque featuring power assisted steering, all-round independent suspension and four-wheel ABS disc brakes. Powered by a choice of 3.0 litre V6 or 5.0 litre V8 supercharged engines, the F-Type was indecently rapid. With a quoted 488bhp and 461lbft of torque on tap, the V8 S model was reputedly capable of 0-60mph in 4.3 seconds and 186mph. Far rarer than one might expect, just 15,090 examples had been sold worldwide by the end of 2016 (with 2013 production amounting to a mere 2,250 cars).
Finished in the striking combination of Black with Red leather upholstery, this particular example is equipped with the 5.0 litre V8 supercharged engine allied to eight-speed automatic transmission. Said to have had only four former keepers and to have covered a modest 33,000 miles from new, the Jaguar has recently benefited from the refurbishment of its 20-inch alloy wheels. A rare and highly desirable modern classic, this appealing Roadster is offered for sale with V5C Registration Document and service history.
