Ive been looking and looking online and simply cannot come across the actual boot dimensions of the F Type coupe, found many times its 407/408 litres but I need the measurements.

Does someone have the link to them online or the measurements handy?

Many thanks in advance, need to know if a specific case will fit in the back of one.

you sold that Monaro chap and joining us? Oddly enough my mates neighbour just bought a red one and it makes me miss mine. I cannot offer any real comment other than to take official measurements with a pinch of salt. The books said our v40 had a better boot than my z06 and yet we got far more in the z06.

I would only suggest go and take a look, unless you are buying remote. I'm down in Jag this week taking the xkr in for a service so I can ask to take some dummy luggage of a similar type to what you want to use and take some pics

The Monaro went long ago when I left the UK frown unfortunately.

Im heading to the UK in march and trying to decide between an F Type R or an M4 as a rental car, naturally fancy the V8 hilarity of the Jag but at the same time don't really want to be buying a full new set of luggage for the occasion.

I am also looking at buying a V8 R Coupe and went to look at one earlier this week.

I can confirm that the boot space is 2.4 x 3.6 inches.

Looking at Jaguar and What Car? specs, the F-type has a 407litre boot with parcel shelf removed or 310 with the shelf in place.

Dan has managed to fit his Forester STI exhaust in the boot of the F-type long-termer and plenty of kit. (I know that doesn't really give you dimensions but hopefully gives an indication)

If you think that's small you should try and X150 convertible's boot.

Been looking at the M3 to sit along side the e39. My friend has the M4 and as much as it is quick, it sounds fking awful. It reminds me of some local kid who has put a bypass valve in their 1.1 corsa exhaust. Its noise is so manufactured and it does not sound good. I guess it comes down to are you a man = v8, real noise or a mouse (I see you wimped out and flogged the old vulgar LS2).

The other thing I didn't like about the M is the grip or lack of. The traction is not as predicable as the Jag. That said, I'm still considering the M3 because it would be nice alongside the m5.
