I've driven a V8 F-Type and it's by far and the most fun car I've ever driven
The Aston's the better looking car though
Why anyone could look at either of these and still buy a Porsche I have absolutely no idea! 2011 - 2015: 3 x FL2
2015 - 2017: 2 x D4
2017 to date: FFRR SDV8
2023 to date: 2 x FL2 as “second” cars 🙄
2021 to date: Hinckley built ‘14 Triumph Trophy 1200
2022 to date: Hinckley built ‘14 Triumph Trophy 1200 & sidecar!

The Aston is over a foot longer than the Jag ....I'd have either 21 year LR veteran > D2 GS 2003 > D3 S 2006 > D3 HSE 2009 > D4 HSE 2013 > D4 HSE 2015 > D5 HSE 2018 > DS HSE R-Dynamic P300e 2021

My sainted parents are hard core jag fans and there're on their second F after a couple of XKR's.
My old dot is currently rolling about in a F type S, very pretty car goes vvrroomm and is reasonably quick
Myself I would have preferred their old XKR, seemed like more car for your money.
Not eligible for the Aston as I am too poor, but it's quite interesting what you can bag for D4 money...........Farewell and adieu to you, Spanish Ladies

Yep We get 30mpg + out of our S on longer runs.
Will be needing rear tyres soon, that might smart a bit.
