F Pace

I've been thinking about what to replace the 3 series with in 18 months or so and due to the arrival of our second (and last) nipper have been thinking about either an estate or SUV.

A family friend is sales manager at a Jaguar dealer and was selling the F Pace to me last time I saw him and I've had a bit of a look around on the internet.

We went to the Trafford Centre today and they had one there, it's a really really good effort by Jaguar and I'm very seriously considering getting my name on one, it's a very nice bit of kit in the flesh!





Shit pics because the local proles were all over it

Agree a lovely looking car. Price hikes up hugely to the big engine though. If your friend can swing a discount

Love the look of these, the front is menacing! Only thing that lets it down is the rear grey diffuser part which should be all black and the tiny looking exhausts, the merc style wide fake exhaust tails would have been a lot nicer i think, instead of the pea shooters

Boot was smaller than my brothers X5, it's smaller than an X5 but bigger than an X3, this one had the V6 engine from the F Type which I think is the most powerful in the range at release.

There is a 180 diesel which I'm assuming will be the best seller, as ever especially in terms of looks they will be very dependant of spec.

It was actually an XE I was interested in but he started chatting to me about this, I'll see what deals can be had nearer the time but it's nice to have another option.
