F Type V6S - reliability?
Discussion
Curious to learn from owners how they have found the reliability of the V6S F Type? I have been looking at early 2013-2014 models.
Looks like you can still get them used with a couple of years of Jag warranty intact which is nice. That said I'd I'm interested to know how strong the engine/gearbox/electrics are, especially being supercharged and presumably under a lot more stress than the N/A V6.

I’ve had my V6S for 2.5 years and no problems, lovely car but only done 12.5k miles. Would recommend www.ftypeownersclub.co.uk for some useful advice.

I've had my 2015 V6 F Type Coupe for 1 year, 28k mileage, FSH and completely trouble free to date. Pursyluv said:

Do they not rust quite a bit underneath.
Yep as a prospective buyer I’m interested to know more about this issuedaveyc86 said:
What happened?
Manufacturing defect on the tappet of valve 4b causing a very noisy tappet noise. Needed a new cylinder head assy as a result due to a screwed valve guide that’s non-serviceable.. The other was refurbed - decoke and valve grind. 32 new tappets. New oil pump. Three new chain tensioners. Had its first test run today, so hopefully will be back soon.
