Been wanting to get your impression on the F-Type, so was great to see this. I have the V6S with a Stage 3 tune (downpipes, pulleys, ECU tune) pushing over 475bhp, and even though it's not the fastest thing out there, it's an absolute pleasure to drive. Also genuinely impressed that you completed a lap with the OEM brakes, mine were done within one week of owning the car and I've since installed R1Concepts high-perf drilled & slotted rotors and pads - night and day difference.

If you can find one to drive, the early F-Type R model was 550hp and RWD. They only made it for about 1 year but it was a real fun car and less of a brute than the AWD R/SVR but with almost the same amount of power. I owned one for a couple years and loved it (when it wasn't broken). I also went through 3 sets of brakes in 20k miles.

Yeah, V8 variants with Rwd are the ones to get if you want fun. The awd variants had not a good torque split management that caused nervous behaviour and sometimes unpredictable understeer in the corners especially when the car started sliding. So yeah, only rwd. V8 s-roadsters with 495hp were made in greater numbers for much longer since 2013 and with some mapping and pulley tuning can easily get up to 700hp.

Yeah I have some alpine road time in an early R and it was a nice package and not lacking in grunt either! The later AWD variant I sampled on a challenging circuit was numb by comparison, but certainly quicker out of the slower corners.

I have a 2017 F-Type V6S AWD. I've put 98k miles on mine and it's a great car and been issue free. The Base V6 model you drove in the video unfortunately does suffer from under damping. The S with it's adjustable shocks fixes that and it's a pretty big swing in damping when in Dynamic mode. The brakes are pretty bad though and does suffer from some serious fade, pretty quickly as well. The ceramics are really good on an F-Type. Great video mate

Hahah that's my friend and I in the "Real SVR", sorry for the unexpected braking hahaha

Regarding the welded exhaust - with the active exhuast, the actuators often go on them causing a really annoying rattle. Welding them open/shut is a quick way to get rid of the rattling - i'm guessing the last owner opted to weld them shut because they didn't want to deal with the noise all the time. I just had the same issue with mine, welded open for now but gives me a good excuse to get a new exhaust put in :)

Its actually very good in the most demanding track globally..most cars cant even finish..no fuel or overheat..we are brainwashed about reliability

Great car, still a beautiful vehicle and nice to see a V6 too! Although the illegal reg plate isn't good. Super driving as ever, keep it up.

Thanks for the video Misha, really fun car to drive and one of the best sounding cars IMO

The sweet spot for one of these I think is the V6 S you get 380bhp instead of 335 in the Standard V6 you get respectable fuel economy and a cheaper purchase price and running costs than the equivalent V8 and its only very slightly slower. Also you actually get decent sized breaks and stiff suspension unlike this boat 😂

The car has done surprisingly well considering it's a sparsely specced base-model F-Type, with the small brakes, basic suspension and no limited slip differential. Then again, it's Misha driving. Great work!

I’m sure you already checked, but it’s a common fault for the exhaust valves to seize/fail (exhaust switch) so the guy may not have welded them shut. 🤷🏼‍♂️
