Managed to get a F type for 8 hours so that's a decent test drive 👍
Salesman said you can't use the key to operate the windows or roof which I thought was odd for a high grade car.
Looking forward to the drive tomorrow.

Overall a good car well put together, V6 did use too much exhaust masking the speed.
Going to try the 400 and V8 next.

V8 exhaust is significantly more "shouty".

400: keep it pinned above 5k to feel the difference.

Has anyone retrofitted the flat bottomed steering wheel?
Model I'm interested in hasn't got this but I quiet like that option.
