Default Watch an F Type being born...

Great video. The bare aluminum actually looks pretty great. Really cool to see the hood being stamped and chassis being assembled.

USA IP address link here. Enjoy:

UK IP address link here. Enjoy:

Sorry guys. No idea. I'm in the UK and both versions play fine from here. Google search F Type manufacturing if you're interested. It's a "how it's made" video.

I did enjoy watching this video, as it gives one a solid background on the making of the F Type vehicle. But .... The part where they showed & explained the Sound System development and quality inspection is a complete contradiction of what members of this message board are saying about the defective car audio system. Really.... 300 hours of R & D was put into " PERFRCTING " the F Type audio system. I seriously doubt that.

I don't. That number is minuscule. For a good system going into thousands of cars, I would have guessed at least a thousand hours to properly develop a system like that.

Default Nice

Nice video. I imagine doing body work on these must be a fine art. Rivets and adhesives are not found in most body shops. Let's hope we never have to find out

Haven't found any at the local Napa store either.
