I've been looking at this F-Type V6 S Coupe online for a few days and it finally got the better of me. I called the dealership and had it bought shortly after. Now I just have to schlep 235 miles north to get it. Thursday looks favorite weather wise.

Here's the spec:

20" BLADE ALLOYS -
PERFORATED PREMIUM SPORTS SEATS WITH RED STITCHING -
MERIDIAN 770W SOUND -
PANORAMIC GLASS ROOF -
SUPER PERFORMANCE RED BRAKE CALIPERS -
VISIBILITY PACKAGE -
POWER TAILGATE -
SWITCHABLE SPORTS EXHAUST -
REVERSING CAMERA -
RED SEAT BELTS -
DUAL ZONE CLIMATE CONTROL.

....and now some pics

Gorgeous car. I have just spent an hour going through the classifieds and looking at these as I am getting itchy feet for something new.

I have never found out what "a visibility pack" actually is.
Can someone please enlighten me?
It's not just a pair of wiper blades or a driver seat bolster cushion is it?

Yup, picked it up on the 3rd. My son and I drove 235 miles up to Sheffield to collect it and had a very nice drive back. It does get a lot of attention! People slow down to let you overtake so they can get a better look.
I've already washed it twice and it's a long time since I had a car I took out just for the fun of driving. That exhaust.........!!!!!
