The Jaguar F-Type Coupe – there's a few things
you need to know about it. Firstly, you can get it with two supercharged
3.0-litre V6 engines, one has 340bhp, and the one in this S model has 380bhp. You can also get a supercharged 5.0-litre
V8 with 550bhp in the F-Type Coupe R. That car will set you back £85,000. This S is £60,000 and the entry-level V6
is £51,000, which means that like-for-like, the Coupe is about £7,000 cheaper than the
convertible. Speaking of which, because it's got a hard
roof on it, the coupe, it's got a stiffer body, which means that overall it should handle
better. In fact this is the most torsionally rigid
Jaguar ever made. Now, I could have done a normal review where
I told you what this car is like to drive on the road – And then I could have also told you what it's
like to drive on the track – I could even have shown you how you can fit
some golf clubs in its boot – The thing is, though, there will be plenty
of other reviews all over the Internet which will tell you all that.
Do you know what? They'll each come to the same conclusion. The Coupe is rather like the convertible,
which we've already reviewed, only it's slightly sharper to drive. What they and I won't be able to explain in
mere words is why the F-Type Coupe is like a work of art..
