My new Jaguar F-Pace
Discussion
It's been said a million times a colour can make or break a car. I was alongside a black F-Pace in a 5mph motorway crawl the other day, a 2 litre model with smaller wheels than yours, it looked nothing special at all. Your car however looks superb, the wheels, the coloured calipers and body colour look superb. Great choice

Lots of them around my way and I like the look of them. Is the entertainment/nav any better nowadays on Jags?
You now have two choices, where once there was only one and lump it.The JLR standard nav sadly is as slow as it ever was.
However, they now have a solution with the new In Touch Control Pro, which is full screen, iPad type zooming, just as if you were looking at Google images on your PC, choice of routes to go, fastest or preferred, adding waypoints easily etc.
As part of the FP pack, you also lose the physical dials, instead getting a black panel in front of the driver which can be various dial option on the sat nav map in glorious technicolor.
I have taken a picture below on the dual screen, with a satellite view as an example.
I've seen loads and loads of these around Coventry, and every single one has been the 2 litre diesel rattler and most have been a drab colour. I think the colour you've gone for would be my choice too, the car looks good enough to pull it off.

i would spec the car with the real dials, i really dislike digital ones, especially as they are cheaper to make than dials
aside that, much want, with the 380bhp petrol engine of course
Cheers for all your comments, some questions answered...
It is the 3 litre diesel 300ps
Yes you can have the sat nav in full in place of the dials, ala Audi virtual cockpit
Standard dials are not great, the upgrade is worth it, not just for the central unit that does a whole lot more than the standard unit, but the black panel display in front of the driver is totally configurable to dials/computer/media/sat nav in various ways
I am in Sussex actually, map happened to pinch to leatherhead!
