Don't tell anyone, today I'm cheating Great Smurf, sshh!
Ciao everyone, here it's Marchettino!
Today I'm having some proper fun with the Jaguar F-Type S AWD!
Thanks to BiAuto I'm able to enjoy this car for the whole day around Turin.
As you might have seen, I decided to start the video at Superga,
if you have a good eye you might have recognized the place because
that's where I have shown you for the first time the GT-R, known as Great Smurf right now.
You know guys, when I unvealed the GT-R many of you were kinda surprised
and I've noticed that many of you expected me to show you a Jaguar F-Type!
Well, the truth is that I am really in love with the F-Type.
My smile says it all, I really love the F-Type and
I seriously considered to get one and
Great Smurf has already covered 23.000km in 8 about months and
I'm already considering a replacement for the GT-R!
Should I think of getting a Jaguar F-Type, after all?
The F-Type that I'm driving is the S AWD version and it's packed with a V6 that
delivers 380hp, you may think it's not that much but
the truth is that after having driven the GT-R for so long
550hp is really a lot of power, perhaps even way too much for the public roads!
Because in just a matter of seconds you're reaching a speed that is dangerous for you, for the others
you're always in a costant risk to lose the driving license, I'll be honest!
It's a very, very powerful car.
This V6 sounds pretty good, it's actually the stock exhaust!
Can you actually feel a difference between this and the GT-R when you accelerate? Of course you do!
This one has 170hp less than the GT-R!
So you may think that the version to go would be the R but
As I said, that's a lot of power for a public road,
the good thing of the F-Type S is that
you can accelerate a lot more because with the GT-R you smash the foot on the throttle
and just after a few seconds you have to slam the foot on the brakes!
And you're like " WOOOAH, that much?! "
But this, the S is so balanced, so enjoyable to drive!
And THAT sound!
I think this is one of the best V6 engines ever built!
It's mid-November and I'm driving with the roof down!
I didn't expected to find such a lovely day to enjoy the F-Type S Convertible, really!
So basically, the F-Type packs all the things that I would need from a sports car,
I'm not sure I would go for the convertible version because
I like and enjoy to daily drive the GT-R and in order to be able to use a car like that every day,
it has to have also a big trunk and the convertible version of the F-Type doesn't really have one and that
would be a good problem to pack my luggage, my bag with all the video equipments
so I think I would definitely go for a coupè.
And what if.. a baby-blue F-Type?
And by the way, I quite like the configuration of this F-Type,
white with a kinda aggressive red interior, pretty cool!
It doesn't really have much options this one,
I quite like the Performance seats but beside that, I don't think there are other options on this car but
even the basic F-Type looks pretty cool and has lots of interesting features.
The AWD sounds like the ideal version to go in order to use it every day and in every possible condition
just like I do with the GT-R! If the GT-R wouldn't be AWD, probably I couldn't use it every day!
I've driven the GT-R through some pretty extreme situations under the rain and with the RWD that would have been impossible!
Actually, the AWD system of the F-Type is different from the GT-R because whereas the GT-R tends
to oversteer and react also like a RWD car,
the F-Type really doesn't, it's very neutral and balanced in every condition.
I think this would be the only car in the world I would keep stock with the exhaust..
maybe for the first week!
Does this tunnel looks familiar to you guys?
THAT noise!
I think the police is gonna place a speed camera because of me!
I don't even know how many times I've been here with the GT-R!
Did you enjoy?
Definitely! Next time we're doing it again!
So the F-Type is approved by Miss Marchettino, good!
The love for this car is growing and growing!
I'm kinda cheating Great Smurf today!
Byee!
