Sad times. Still miss my F-Type, but not the reliability\bills.

Dream car would still be the newer P575 F-Type.

Too many
More like Jaguar is dead, going bust within 5-10 years is in the cards

Without ICE why should people spent more to buy a Jag vs a Chinese made EV...Jags are never known for the efficiency of their batteries lol

Given now nearly 70% of global battery production is in China, they have a full house advantage in battery manufacturing (economy of scale + R&D). My speculation is BYD will slaughter all the car manufacturers that goes 100% EV (thks EU, ha ha ha) with no other technological options (ICE, hybrid, carbon neutral fuel/e-fuel, hydrogen cell, liquid hydrogen...etc) to offer.

I have always liked how these cars look, but the resale and reliability kept me from getting one.

I once rented a 2017 convertible F-type. I was a great grand-touring car, although the Check Engine light was on. It kind-of reminded me of the LC500, except that car never displayed a check Engine light. ;)

I really liked the car when it first came out and really wanted to buy one, but then the refresh made it ugly so letting it go off my desirable list was the result
