Good luck with the search!

Blue is definitely on the more rare side for the F, white black red has a steady stream of supply when i got mine recently.

Auction sites like bringatrailer and carsandbids can also be a good source, they are a hell more detailed in photos and descriptions but there are some cons associated.

This popped up. Not sure what a branded title is?

"A branded title indicates that the car had extensive damage, issues with its odometers, or a defect that caused it to be bought back by the manufacturer."

"
A branded title means that a vehicle has suffered some type of incident where the insurance company declares it a total loss. The state’s Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) issues a new “branded” title to explain it. Some things that might result in an unclean title is a major accident, flood, fire, vandalism, theft, hail damage, or an odometer rollback. "

In Australia we call this a "statutory write-off," but I'm pretty sure once a car has been written off here it can never be registered again. It's a massive waste to see a $100k car get scrapped because of something silly like hail damage, but it's awesome if you're buying a track car

Thanks again all! Sadly my old TL died so I had to pick something up. Went with a '19 XE S. Would have loved the f type, maybe in the future, but the XE is a lot of fun as well

That would have been nice! Had to pick something up, quick snap of the XE I got instead, really liking it so far!

I loved our 2017 XE 35t Prestige AWD in bluefire/white. She was a fem. I've made quite a few long distance jaunts in her. Alas, we traded her in for a 2023 F-PACE SVR in ultra blue/white-black. I've loved all of our Jags - each being perfect for their intended purpose - and regret letting them go. However, we couldn't justify having six vehicles for my wife and I.​​​​​​​
