Default Newbie F Type R Owner

Hi All, new owner of first Jag- F type R- what an amazing machine!

i would like to pick the collective brain! My car RFL (car tax) is only £265 per 12 months!
everyone else in the UK with a V8 ‘R’ coupe is paying £570!

it has been suggested by a chap and on another forum that the car is either very early or even a prototype? It’s on an 2013 plate.
my car seems to have a different speaker set up too.
if anyone can shine some light on this, it would be greatly appreciated!
thanks in advance

Hello, Derek,
Congratulations on your new F-type.
If your RFL is a mere Half what others pay, do NOT ask questions, just pay it quietly and Leave!
Do NOT kick that sleeping dog!

Welcome to the foruns from ElinorB.

Welcome to the forums Derek,

I got a nasty shock the other way round when I went from a 2007 to a 2014 XK.

Jaguar aren't in the habit of selling development cars although press cars do find their way onto the market. The 2014MY went on sale in 2013 commencing with VIN ending K00001. Follow this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x...-x350-x358-28/ to the F-Type forum for help, advice and information. You can also use the UK & Eire Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/uk-eire-68/ to find other members in your region.

Please add vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. Go to the User CP button on the left of the top menu bar, then Settings & Options under Your Control Panel. Select Edit Signature and enter the details.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
