Britain's Last Great
Analogue Sports Car
The Jaguar F-Type (X152) is the spiritual successor to the legendary E-Type — a two-seat, two-door sports car built in Birmingham from 2013 to 2024. Designed by Ian Callum, it arrived as a convertible in 2013 and gained a fastback coupé body in 2014.
With 87,731 examples built over eleven years, the F-Type offered an extraordinary range of powertrains — from a 296hp turbocharged four-cylinder to a 575hp supercharged V8 — in rear-wheel and all-wheel-drive configurations.
Now discontinued, it represents one of the last pure-analogue British sports cars. Used prices have reached compelling levels, making this guide more relevant than ever.

Everything You Need to Know
Driver-Focused.
Uncompromisingly So.
The F-Type's interior was designed around a single principle: the driver. The centre console rises between the occupants like a spine, toggle switches control the active exhaust and dynamic modes, and the instrument cluster keeps the tachometer front and centre.
The 2021 facelift brought a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and a 10-inch Touch Pro infotainment screen — a meaningful upgrade over the earlier system. Pre-facelift cars retain more analogue character but require more patience with the technology.
