Judging by his car list he was until recently a resident of the good ol' US of A, so I'm guessing he moved to London UK not that long ago.
Unless of course he is located in London USA, as there is bound to be a city/town/village/hamlet somewhere in the US named London, although I can't find one.
Either that or he's just messin' with us!

Just traded my 987 Boxster S in on a new 2017 F-Type V6S, very little wheel time yet, but the Boxster is definitely the more driver focused car and I can't believe how much larger the Jag feels. I plan on doing a comparison once I have had more time behind the wheel in different situations. I put about 36,000 km on the Porsche including a two week 6000km road trip to the Tail of the Dragon, I am anxious to do the same thing in the Jag.
Any questions related to the 987's, feel free to ask, i did a lot of my own work so quite familiar with it.

I can't wait to give it a try, today we got another 3 inches of snow so I can't even get it on the roads around here let alone a weekend trip to the Tail. I do think the trip down will be nicer but I suspect the trip around the dragoon might be a little more , shall we say interesting. LOL

Do you mind me asking what the hate part was? I considered the C7 but around here there are just so many on the road and my wife really didn't like the look of them. Good luck with the new car, you get a lot of bang for your buck with the Vette.

First post. No pics yet but I'll post soon. I went from a Porsche Boxster to my new F-Type. I loved the Boxster, had a blast driving it, and never had any issues with it what so ever (including not a peep out of the IMS issue that brought down more than a few). Regular maintenance, tires, and oil, that was it. I kept it seven years and missed it almost as soon as I sold it. Handled like a dream, felt solid, had plenty of power. All that said; I don't miss it now. The F-Type is much faster, feels more planted, handles just as well (on public roads), and feels considerably more solid. The fit & finish of the Jaguar is miles better than the Porsche. My only real complaints with the Boxster were how loud it was with the top up and, as someone has already mentioned, it felt & looked like cheap plastic in several areas of the interior. It was very much a function first, amenities second car.

Newbie here and before all of yous start making remarks about my avatar, I am looking for feedback as a previous Porsche owner. This thread has been very helpful and I look forward to many more reasons to buy a F Type V6 S.
Any thought about convertible over coupe? I love the look of the convertible, but as an avid golfer, it has to do the job for my clubs.
Thanks

my hate comments- the interior seems cheap- the plastic knobs the archaic "digital" temp readings, 8 days after i delivered the parking brake system locked and i was flatbedded back to the dealer where they diagnosed a faulty abs(land rover sourced) module after 2 weeks in service. left a bad taste from the get go. the app must've been designed by lucas as it works on its own schedule for remote start, lock etc. Even with sport exhaust off the start up is LOUD- i often leave before 6 am and used to start the car with the garage closed out of respect for my neighbors. Never ever felt as connected to the road as i did with a 911, is the jag faster off the line - yes but didnt feel it

I would agree however on the F Type with active switchable exhaust it would seem more sensible for start up exhaust to be loud or quiet according to active exhaust switch setting.
