About the Jaguar F-Type
The Jaguar F-Type is the spiritual successor to the legendary E-Type, offering a masterclass in British sports car design and visceral performance. Whether chosen as a sleek coupé or a head-turning convertible, it remains one of the most evocative grand tourers to grace UK roads since its 2013 debut.
Why Buy a Used Jaguar F-Type?
- Timeless Ian Callum styling ensures it remains one of the best-looking cars on sale today.
- A wide range of powertrains from the efficient P300 to the thunderous 5.0-litre supercharged V8.
- ULEZ compliance across all petrol models makes it a practical choice for city-based enthusiasts.
- Highly communicative chassis and steering provide a genuinely engaging driving experience on B-roads.
Typical Price Range
All prices are approximate.
- 2013–2017: £18,000 – £32,000 — Early V6 and V6 S models are now excellent value, though check for a full main-dealer service history.
- 2018–2020: £33,000 – £52,000 — Post-facelift models with the 2.0L Ingenium engine or '400 Sport' special editions; often still under extended warranty.
- 2021–2024: £53,000 – £95,000 — Latest generation featuring the slim 'pixel' LED headlights and '75' final edition heritage trims.
Common Issues to Check
- Fuel injectors on V6 and V8 models are known to fail or leak, requiring immediate attention to avoid engine damage.
- Corrosion can occur on the rear subframe and exhaust valves; ensure the MOT history doesn't mention structural rust.
- Internal infotainment glitches are common on pre-2017 models; check the 10-inch Touch Pro system for lag.
- The electronic active rear spoiler motor can seize if not lubricated regularly.
Running Costs
- Fuel Economy: 22mpg - 35mpg depending on engine choice
- Insurance Group: Insurance groups 42 to 50
- Servicing: Minor services typically cost around £350, with major intervals at the DVLA-registered 12-month or 16,000-mile mark reaching £700.
Which Variant Should I Choose?
- P300 R-Dynamic: The daily driver. The 2.0L turbocharged engine is lighter over the nose, making it the most agile and fuel-efficient choice.
- V6 S / P380: The enthusiast. This version features the 'sweet spot' supercharged engine with a mechanical limited-slip differential and active exhaust.
- F-Type R: The power hungry. With 550PS (later 575PS) and All-Wheel Drive, this is a supercar-slayer capable of 0-60mph in 3.5 seconds.
- SVR: The collector. Developed by Special Vehicle Operations, it features titanium exhausts and a carbon fibre wing for ultimate track capability.
- 400 Sport: The connoisseur. A one-year-only special edition with unique brakes and yellow trim, bridging the gap between the S and the R.
