Description
The only Manual transmission gearbox F-Type for sale on Autotrader at the time of the advert.
This vehicle does not have flappy paddles it is a true 6 speed manual transmission gearbox.
Jaguar F Type S coupe 2017 facelift model manual transmission 380 BHP. With reference to the forums only 106 - 380 BHP manual transmissions were ever registered in the UK. If evenly split between convertible & coupe that makes 53 of this variant. During 2017 this was one of thirteen in the UK. Which possibly could make these rarer than the fabled project 7. Naturally that is if all the registered cars are still on the road today. They do seem to have a reputation for being driven in an enthusiastic manner by some owners.
I have owned this for just under 2 years and in that time the Y pipes were swapped out for metal pipes from NG Barratts. A new water pump, thermostat and expansion tank from David Manners. A full Jaguar B service 2000 miles ago from a Jaguar specialist. Including differential oil replacement and a new coolant cross over pipe fitted at the rear bulkhead.
There have been two previous owners before myself. The original owner specified the level of equipment for what the car was intended. A pure driving experience with the uprated sports seats. The manual transmission is slick and very rewarding if you appreciate the full driving experience. Complemented with impeccable road holding makes this a very rare and rewarding experience.
No other S manual for sale in the Country.
Comes with a set of orbit wheels as pictured with as new Pirelli P zero tyres. A space saver wheel in the boot as well.
The contrast of the dark blue and red performance seats make this a very striking vehicle to behold.
At the time of writing as previously mentioned I do not believe there is another manual S coupe for sale in the Country. In the last 2 years I have never seen a facelift 2017 post manual S model for sale. Possibly the owners who did buy them have kept them locked away for future financial speculation.
I have owned a Jaguar E type coupe manual as pictured and I suspect these few hundred F-Types will be very sought after. That is if you can even find one for sale.
The last few pictures are the light nearside panel damage sustained. A new door and sill was required with a professional paint to the nearside.
Pictured with the supplied extra wheel set with P-zero tyres as new.
Registration plate will stay on the vehicle.
