That's beautiful Lizard. I like working on my cars. Unfortunately, cars have gotten so complicated that there isn't a lot that you can do yourself anymore. So that leaves giving them a loving hand wash and detail job on a regular basis just to "bond with" the vehicle.
When my new 2021 F Type arrives I plan on giving it a DIY ceramic paint treatment. Tell us what you used.

Thanks.I had tried doing paint corrections/detailing work on my own in the past, but found that my expectations always exceeded my ability so I took this to a professional shop.

I'm in NoVA too, and I used Speed and Tech in Chantilly/Sterling.

They had done several of my cars over the years now. PM me if you like more details on cost and etc.

Default I finally took possession of my MY2019 F-Type R

It’s officially mine!

My dealer friend mounted and balanced my Pirelli Sottozero perfomance winter tires and O.Z. Racing wheels (I like them even better than the OEM wheels, which are in storage with my summer tires).

The car is in “cherry” condition (as they say in the trade). The interior even has residual new car scent.

Thank you, Top Store, Inc. You did a superb and invaluable job helping me purchase my dream car.

That is a stunner. The bright trim around the windows and the vents plus those wheels and the red calipers makes for a great combination with the red paint.

Looks like any other F-Type but at least this one is mine.

Finally got the car washed with my new wheels (it was eating dust for over a month). Turns out finding forged wheels to exact OEM spec is very difficult. Paul and BC Forged came through, with custom center holes for fitting the OEM center caps to boot

Thanks. My dealer calls it an “even you” car, as in “even you could get l^%d with this car.”

thanks, it’s dark sapphire metallic. Pictures really don’t do the metallic justice.

Thanks for the gorgeous pictures. I agree the F-type is one of the most beautiful cars out there. Even Ferrari agree. Apart from a sharper nose, the Roma looks like a Jag

We waited and waited for other attendees to show up for the 2021 Jaguar F-Type Phantom Tour—which kicked off tonight—but no one else showed.

Remind me again when you put your car away for the winter?

I’ve attended at the Pacific North West 2021 Phantom Tour commencement site at sunset, as required, highly since 1 January.
Regret to say, no sign of the others.....but then again....it is indeed a Phantom Tour.
I will not give up hope or trust.

@chenthu Is that a SeaSucker bike carrier? If not, what is it? Either way, how are you liking it?
